A two-day blood donation drive organised by The One, Batu Satu, began yesterday, drawing 27 donors on its first day.
The event continues today from 10am to 3pm at the Function Room, Block B, Level 2, The One, Batu Satu.
The initiative, held in collaboration with the Blood Donation Centre at Raja Isteri Pengiran Anak Saleha (RIPAS) Hospital, aims to replenish blood supplies and encourage the public to participate in life-saving efforts.
Among the donors was 39-year-old rescue worker Mohd Firdaus bin Yusoff, who shared his motivation for contributing to the cause, having donated blood 10 times to date.
“I’m motivated by seeing the low stock of blood, especially A+, and I want to assist those in need, including accident victims and patients undergoing operations,” he said.
Meanwhile, the Blood Donation Centre at RIPAS Hospital is holding a campaign today with registration taking place from 7.30pm to 9pm.
The public is called to join and donate blood to help increase blood supply in the country.
The public is also encouraged to come directly to the Blood Donation Centre to donate blood during working hours from 8am to 11.30am and 1.30pm to 4pm.
It is also advisable to book a blood donation slot through the Bloodkad application for the blood donation. – Fadley Faisal & Fadhil Yunus
