A blood donation camp was organised by Students' Council of Shija Academy of Health Sciences (SAHS) at Shija Blood Centre & Transfusion Services, Langol on Thursday.
The event, themed "Blood can circulate forever if you keep donating it", drew around 40 volunteers donating blood to address the state's increasing blood shortage and to cater to the need of blood for those who are brought injured in the present crisis.
Council's president, Sanathoibi Kshetrimayum highlighted their active participation in community services, including organising health awareness campaigns and donations to relief camps for those displaced amid the turmoil in the state.
Valentina Haobijam, assistant secretary, said that this was the council's second blood donation drive, and that all volunteers were SAHS students.
She also underlined the noble and lifesaving significance of awareness campaigns promoting blood donation.
