Hi all!
The Singapore Management University’s (SMU) Red Cross Chapter is organizing a public blood donation drive in the name of Singapore Red Cross. The objective of the drive is to help ensure an adequate supply of blood for patients during the Christmas period. Through the drive, members of the public are encouraged to start or continue donating blood, leading to a cumulative effect where more people will join this heroic and eventful act of blood donation. The aim is to collect 750 units of blood during the blood donation drive this year and to recruit 150 first-time donors.
This will be a meaningful event held in the city which aims to reach out to individuals aged 18- 40 from all walks of life and tap on the weekend crowd especially during the Christmas season.
Volunteers will be in groups at various locations giving out flyers and asking members of the public to donate blood on Awareness Drive and Actual Blood Donation Drive. Some may help out at the blood donation area itself on Actual Blood Donation Drive.
