Blood Donation Drive by Dera Sacha Sauda Followers in Bangalore

13th of May, Sunday, witnessed another successful blood donation drive(in Bangalore) as an attempt to help people, who suffer because of unavalaibility of blood.
This blood donation camp was conducted by followers of Dera Sacha Sauda organisation (Haryana) at NIMHANS hospital, Bangalore. In Dera Sacha Sauda, people are encouraged to donate blood, because such a simple effort can go a long way in saving hundreds of lives. 40 units of blood was donated as a part of this drive. The followers, who donated blood work in different MNCs like Infosys, SAP Labs, Accenture, Oracle, Kotak etc., and included businessmen, doctors, house wives and students as well. Dera Sacha Sauda already has a Guiness Record for donating the maximum number of blood units i.e 17,921 in 12 hours.

It is really praiseworthy and touching to see that even today there are organisations which inspire people to do such noble deeds. I am sure this will continue in future as well with the drive attracting more number of volunteers and hence helping more number of needy people.
