Mumbai, February 1, 2026 – Rotarian Lal Goel, Founder and Charter President of the Rotary Club of Organ Donation International and Chairman of the Organ Donation India Foundation & GYAN, will address members of the Indian diaspora across the United States this summer to promote awareness and advocacy for Organ Donation.
The initiative follows a high-level strategic planning meeting between Lal Goel and Dipan Shah at the Hotel Hilton Garden Inn, Mumbai. The discussion culminated in a collaborative, bilateral education and outreach program aimed at strengthening Organ Donation awareness and best practices in both India and the United States.
During his US engagements, Rotarian Lal Goel will focus on the legal, ethical, and regulatory framework governing Organ Donation in India, while also highlighting the country’s world-class transplant infrastructure and medical expertise. His addresses are designed to empower the Indian diaspora to actively engage their families and communities in India, encouraging informed decisions that can save countless lives.
As part of this reciprocal collaboration, Rotarian Dipan Shah will visit India in December, where he will share insights into the latest advancements, protocols, and innovations in organ and tissue donation from the United States, fostering cross-border learning and capacity building.
Rotarian Dipan Shah currently serves as the Tissue Donation Chair of the Rotary Club of Organ Donation International and is a Surgical Skin and Musculoskeletal Tissue Bank Recovery Specialist at MTF Biologics, working in association with NJ Sharing Network, USA.
The planning meeting concluded on a warm note of Rotary fellowship, with Rotarian Lal Goel presenting the Rotary Club flag to Rotarian Dipan Shah, who reciprocated by presenting an NJ Sharing Network poster—symbolizing a shared commitment to advancing the global mission of Organ Donation.
