Citizen Journalist: Blood donation camp at Great Lakes Gurgaon

Feb-12-2013, Tuesday:

A blood donation camp was organized at Great Lakes Institute of Management, Gurgaon yesterday. Rotary Blood Bank (RBB) was invited for the blood donation camp. There was enthusiastic participation from academic staff and students. A total of 55 samples were collected albeit number of registrations for donating blood was much higher. Some of the interested donors could not donate as they were not eligible. Various parameters that were checked for evaluation for eligibility for blood donation were Haemoglobin level and Blood Pressure. The blood donors were provided certificates, juice, fruit and a mug. The number of samples collected was more than 25% of total number students and academic staffs and that was encouraging.
