Blood Donation At Mount Carmel Hospital

As part of the 1st MAP-N launching anniversary, the mobile blood bank unit will be at Mount Carmel Hospital on the 9th of May from 8:30 till 13:00. This is an opportunity for us to help others in a different way. All you need to bring along is the Identification Card.

Five Reasons to Donate Blood

1. Every 2 seconds someone needs blood. (Marshall Community Blood Centre, USA,)

2. There is absolutely no health risk from donating blood.

3. Your body has 10-12 pints of blood. Your body will replenish that lost pint in less than 48 hours.

4. 80% of us will need blood by age 75.

5. Blood has to be available before it is needed.

Tell your family and friends about our initiative! Together we can make a huge difference in others people lives. Looking forward to see you!
