(3)BLOOD DONATION
The Malaysian Association of Hotels(MAH), together with its co-organisers, Rotary Club of Damansara and Istana Hotel Kuala Lumpur are pleased to organise a Blood Donation Campaign in aid of the University Malaya Medical Centre (UMMC) Blood Bank.
The need for blood increases during holidays and festive seasons, where people are more likely to be travelling and are active during these times, and are at an increased risk of accidents. With this in mind, MAH together with its co-organisers realise that this campaign is essential because of Hari Raya Aidilfitri, one of the biggest festive celebrations amongst Malaysian is approaching in a month’s time.
Donating blood is a fast and simple procedure. Blood donors can donate up to half a litre every two and a half to three months. This amount is small, given that the body contains five to six litres of blood. The full blood donation procedure takes no more than 15 to 20 minutes.
I would greatly appreciate if Presidents of Rotary Clubs in the Klang Valley support this effort by encouraging their members to visit Istana Hotel Kuala Lumpur on 9th August from 10.00am to 4.00pm. The organisers hope to welcome more than hundred donors on that day. As many as three people’s lives can be saved as a result of just one donation.
Enclosed herewith is the Blood Donation Campaign flyer . For more information, please contact Mr. Azzwa, our Membership Executive at 03-4251 8477.
Give Blood, Give Life. Regards,Francis Arulanandam President, RC Damansara
