À propos de ce contenu audio

In honor of Save One Life’s 25th Anniversary, audiences will be invited to hear the remarkable story of how the organization grew from a passion to help those without access to essential medications and treatment into a global lifeline for individuals with hemophilia and other bleeding disorders. What began with a single visit to a humble home in Pakistan—and a father’s plea for $20 so his son could attend school—sparked a movement that has now transformed thousands of lives across continents. This anniversary program will highlight Save One Life’s extraordinary global impact, sharing deeply human stories of courage, resilience, and determination from children, young adults, and families navigating life with limited access to care. Listeners will hear how sponsorship, financial assistance, education, and community development programs have opened doors to opportunity, restored dignity, and replaced fear with hope. The podcast shines a light on both the families whose futures have been changed and the sponsors whose compassion has helped break the cycle of generational poverty. Over the past 25 years, Save One Life has become a beacon for those living with hemophilia in underserved regions—providing essential support, fostering independence, and creating pathways to long-term self-sustainability. These stories honor not only where the organization began, but the rippling impact of what is possible when one life touches another. One country, one community, and one life at a time—Save One Life continues to prove that small acts of compassion can transform generations.Copyright 2026 Where Hope Begins: The Save One Life Podcast Economie Management Management et direction Sciences sociales

  • Ride Your Own Ride: Vaughn Ripley, Doug Mildram, and Ujjwal Bhattarai on Wheels for the World 2026
    Apr 15 2026
    In this episode of Where Hope Begins: The Save One Life Podcast, host Kai Sorensen sits down with three longtime members of the Save One Life community—Vaughn Ripley, Doug Mildram, and Ujjwal Bhattarai—to talk about Wheels for the World 2026, Save One Life’s largest and most inclusive virtual ride yet. Together, they share what drew each of them to this community—whether through a personal diagnosis, a son’s bleeding disorder, or a relationship with Save One Life’s founder—and what keeps them coming back to the saddle year after year. From cross-country relays carrying the Save One Life flag to 10-mile rides on a rest day, they make one thing unmistakably clear: every mile counts, and every rider belongs. They also get honest about the physical and emotional demands of long-distance riding, the unexpected joy of community along the route, and why the fundraising conversation matters just as much as the training—because what’s ultimately at stake is factor access for children around the world who don’t have it.

  • Let His Death Not Be in Vain: Maureen Miruka on Building a Community of Care in Kenya
    Mar 30 2026
    In this episode of Where Hope Begins: The Save One Life Podcast, host Kai Sorensen sits down with Dr. Maureen Miruka, founder of the Jose Memorial Hemophilia Society of Kenya (JMHSK)—a leader whose story began with a mother’s fight to understand her son’s unexplained bleeding, and deepened through the loss of her son Jose to hemophilia complications in 2007. Maureen shares what it took to pursue diagnosis and care in a system with limited resources, the long bus rides families still take to reach treatment, and the isolation of not knowing another parent facing the same condition. She also explains how partnership with Save One Life helped grow advocacy, access to factor through Project SHARE, and a more holistic model of support—including peer groups, scholarships, micro-enterprise grants, and cash transfers that restore stability and dignity.
