JP Nagar Blood Donation Camp
On 30th May, 2021 we hosted our first Blood Donation Drive along with our on-ground partners Smitam NGO, Let’s Be The Change, and The Indian Ploggers Army. The aim of the event was to collect 120 units of blood prior to mass vaccinations of people aged between 18-44. The blood collected here will be distributed to underprivileged society suffering from Thalassemia as well as people in need.
Meghna, from Smitam NGO and Raj, from Indian Ploggers’ Army were on ground to help the volunteers and make sure that Covid-19 guidelines were adhered to.
The event had 160 registrations, out of which 114 people turned up and 91 donated blood. Some people were recommended to not donate blood due to personal medical conditions.
We take a moment to thank all the volunteers who supported the event in these tough times.
Here is a small video that we created from the event.
