Devaanshi Mehta is one of the most popular and richest Humanitarian Aid Worker who was born on December 18, 1996 in London Borough of Harrow, England, United Kingdom.
At the age of nine, Devaanshi was diagnosed with a rare bone marrow condition aplastic anaemia (bone marrow failure). She underwent a bone marrow transplant in April 2007 and a top up of bone marrow in February 2008 at Great Ormond Street Hospital in London. Both donations were made by her younger brother Dushyant who was her sibling match. However, she was left chronically platelet and red cell dependent after the transplant. In addition, she inherited her brothers’ rarer blood type AB-. Therefore it became increasingly difficult to source negative platelets for her, and she organised appeals via the media. This motivated Devaanshi to investigate problems other children faced sourcing blood, bone marrow and organs. She learnt that it was extremely difficult for people to find these products at the right time, because there were a lack of donors within the Asian community as a whole. These events inspired her to start fundraising and raising awareness regarding the importance of blood, bone marrow and organ donation, especially for the Asian communities. Asians have traditionally avoided donating blood and organs due to social or religious misconceptions.
Devaanshi won the Jack Petchey Award for her fundraising and awareness campaigns in 2010, and was nominated for the Justgiving Young Fundraiser of the Year in 2011. Devaanshi was also recognised by the Well Child Foundation for the most inspirational child in the 12-15-year category in 2012.
