Blood Donation Camp

Blood Donation Camp

On 28 July 2019, Share2care Foundation joined hands with MMG Hospital, Ghaziabad, to organize a blood donation camp at Maia Marvel, Raj Nagar Extension, Ghaziabad. The event drew enthusiastic participation from residents and nearby neighborhoods, resulting in over 40 donors, including many first-timers.

While many women and senior citizens came forward, a few couldn’t contribute due to low haemoglobin or age restrictions. Nevertheless, the camp was a testament to the community’s spirit and commitment. Share2care Foundation remains dedicated to holding such service-oriented camps in the near future.
