The Blood Donation camp at the MB hospital saw an extremely warm voluntary donation of 14-15 units of blood by noon. Donating blood is still suggested as the easiest effort to keep humanity alive.

Thalassemia affected kids require new dosages of blood every alternate week or so and hence it is very important to keep the blood bank updated. This effort was made to fulfill the same requirement and worked on the agenda of voluntary donation.

Srashti Welfare Society, founded by Sahil Thakur had conducted the camp and publicized it over Social Networking sites and newspapers. By noon, he himself had donated blood and was waiting for more invitees to come.

When asked about how was did he felt about the lack of response from the people, he smiled and said, ‘I suspected this might happen. Imagine how wonderful you feel after saving a life by donating blood. At the very least, even if I get 8 units of blood added to the bank today imagine how wonderful I’d be feeling at the end of the day.’

Though, the event was a little less publicized, in the near future more can be expected from social activists like Sahil.
