We have started an organization by the name of YBDA i.e.Young Blood Donors Association.....
Our aim is to create an awareness about blood donation.
We say that
"Donate your blood to save lives and make a difference!!!".
Even the educated do not know of their moral obligation to donate blood and are much less aware of the fact that donating blood helps rejuvenate the body’s blood production mechanism,which has many hidden benefits.
Unfortunately, there is a serious lack of volunteers to donate blood and 30 percent of professional blood donors are HBV,HCV or HIV positive.Unscreened or improperly screened blood is the main factor involved in person-to-person transmission of lethal viruses.Volunteer blood is safe,helps improve donor lives and gives time to blood banks to keep an inventory of blood,plasma and platelets, which allows hundreds of bags of blood to be made available for use in emergencies.
Blood is very important in many medical situations such as serious accidents, organ transplants,major surgery and supporting patients with blood-related disease like haemophilia and thalassaemia.
Most hospitals and medical centres are always having a shortage of blood due to a lack of donors which often results in delayed surgeries and treatment, which can lead to complications and even death in patients.
Just as you would want aid from other in times of emergency, it is important that we help to save the lives of others as well.
Our Organizations' 1st Blood Donation Drive will be held on Tuesday,26th of August 2008 at Jinnah Post Graduate Medical Centre Blood Bank...Timings:10am onwards....
Your donations will be stored & given to the patients during the holy month of Ramadan..!!!
We kindly request you all to come and donate your blood to save lives and make a difference because you people reallllly can!!!!!
Thanks
