Gangwhoo & Blood Donation: Give Blood – Gift Love

January 24th, 2024, Gangwhoo Hospital and Ho Chi Minh Blood Donation Center collaborates to host a Blood Donation Day. This philanthropic act full of compassion is a continuation of Gangwhoo yearly tradition of blood donation.

Blood Donation Day “A drop given – a hope blossomed” 

Donating blood is a vital and altruistic act that can save lives and improve the health of many people. Blood is a scarce and precious resource that cannot be artificially produced or substituted. Therefore, it depends on the generosity and solidarity of voluntary donors to meet the demand of hospitals and patients.

Donating blood also has benefits for the donor, such as reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases, stimulating the production of new blood cells, and enhancing the sense of well-being and social responsibility. In a societal context, donating blood is a way of expressing civic engagement, humanitarianism, and empathy for others. It is a gesture that transcends differences of people from all facets of life and fosters a culture of peace and cooperation.

Gangwhoo and Ho Chi Minh Blood Donation Center have joined forces once again to organize a blood donation day. The campaign, called “A drop given – a hope blossomed”, aims to encourage people to donate blood and save lives.

This event was not only medically significant but also a demonstration of compassion and social responsibility. By donating blood, we showed our solidarity and helped patients who urgently needed transfusions. We also raised awareness of the importance of blood donation for the society.

Doctors and staffs join hands in an unanimous act of compassion

The staff of Gangwhoo Hospital showed their compassion and solidarity by donating blood for a noble cause. Many doctors and other employees volunteered to give blood to help those who need transfusions. This event not only gives hope and life to patients who are fighting for their survival, but also fosters a culture of mutual support and positive humanitarian actions.

Blood donation program ends in a roaring success

With the support of experienced doctors and nurses from both sides, the blood donation process takes place quickly, safely and effectively. Each blood donor was given a health assessment, their blood sample taken and blood pressure measured before donation.

After having donated blood, everyone was issued a blood donation card, monetary compensation and receive gifts with many sentimental values. Many people said they were happy to participate in the event because they were doing something useful for the community and society.
