Blood
Donation Camp at M L Khanna DAV Public School, Dwarka
The
purpose of human life is to serve and to show compassion and the will to help
others. Albert Schweitzer
The school has always played
a pivotal role in organising several community service events with the aim of
spreading awareness related to important social issues and lending a helping
hand to the society.
Human blood is one of the
most precious gifts a human being can give to another. If someone really loves oneself and other
fellow beings, voluntary blood donation is an exemplary method to express it.
Keeping the same objective
in mind, the Interact Club of M L Khanna DAV Public School, Dwarka organised a
blood donation camp on 3rd February 2018 in the school premises in
association with Armed Forces Transfusion Centre and Veterans India. Armed
forces Transfusion Centre, Delhi Cantt which is the largest blood bank of the
Indian Army and a premier institute in the field of Transfusion Medicine
catering to the blood requirement of Army personnel and their families. Veterans
India is an organization of All India ex service men which works to inculcate
patriotism, nationalism and integrity amongst citizens in general and youth and
children in particular.
77 units of blood were
collected in the camp. Parents, teachers and the other members of the school
came forward in giving the gift of life to the sentinels of our nation.
The event was graced by Col
H V Sharma and Col B K Mishra from Veterans India. The presence of Rtn. V K
Jain and Rtn V K Bansal from the parent club of the Interact club of our school
also added grandeur to the occasion. The guests applauded the noble initiative
of the club and remarked that the team spirit and motivation among the teachers
and students was commendable.
The camp was organised in a
very disciplined and meticulous manner. A medical examination was conducted for
volunteers before blood donation. Refreshments were provided to the donors
after donating blood
A signature campaign was
also carried out where everyone expressed their feelings by penning down their thoughts
and ideas for the cause.
Principal Monika Mehan
