Blood Donation Drive

“Bring A Life Back To Power. Make Blood Donation Your Responsibility”

Transfusion of blood saves millions of life every year. In addition, blood supplies need to be replenished constantly, as blood products have a short shelf- life. Recognising this, the Interact Club of D.A.V Dwarka organized its annual feature a Voluntary Blood Donation Camp on Saturday, 6^th February 2016. The camp was sponsored by the Rotary Club of Delhi Uptown.

Prior to the drive, a Poster Making Competition was conducted in the school on Thursday, 4^th February 2016, for classes 6 to 10, to sensitize the students the importance of donating blood, to help save lives. The response to the competition was immense. The children wholeheartedly participated in it and made really beautiful and creative posters conveying the message of blood donation.
A power point presentation on 'Blood Donation' prepared by the club members was also displayed at the reception area and in the classrooms on the Parents Day to spread awareness among the people about this noble cause and also to sensitize people about the health benefits of donating blood.

The Blood Donation Camp commenced with the school’s principal Ms Monika Mehan setting an example by being the first to donate blood. A large number of parents and staff of the school participated in the noble task of donating blood. A signature campaign was also carried out in support of the cause. The special guests, Rotarians from our sponsor club Rtn V.K Jain, Rtn V. K Bhatia and Rtn J. G Nanda gave away the prizes to the winners of the Poster Making Competition and congratulated and appreciated the student and the teacher members for working ceaselessly to make the camp a success.

The school appeared vibrant, decorated with the colourful posters prepared by the students.
