Donor’s speak
| “VBD gives the donor a feeling of joy and contentment. Also this is an expression of love for mankind, as blood knows no caste, colour, creed, country, continent, religion or sex." Shinymol P.A. | |
| Shinymol P.A. Naruvamoodu, Thiruvananthapuram | Shinymol donated her blood of her own accord on 1st October, which is the National Voluntary Blood Donation Day. Mere altruism and commitment posed Shiny to donate blood. |
| Praveen S. S. District Sales Officer H.L.F.P.P.T, Kannur | One who has donated blood on more than one occasion feels that his association with N.C.C. during his school days helped him a lot later on to donate blood, whenever a need arose. But, Praveen feels that more sections in the society need to be made aware of the significance of voluntary blood donation. He pointed out the activities of clubs in villages that are taking initiatives in this regard. According to Praveen, there is also a need to rope in auto / taxi drivers and the traffic police towards the activities of voluntary blood donation and provide them with the right awareness. |
