Blood Donation Camp

 

   

              As a part of our unit "The Naitingle and The Rose" we decided to organise the Blood Donation Camp. As per our unit we come to know the actual werth of blood. The Naitingle sacrifice her life by giving her blood. In real life we got chance to be someone's Naitingle. It's quite hard to give your blood and you need courage for doing such things. 

              On 11 January,  A one-day blood donation camp was organised in our college, R. R. Monpara SPEI, Bhavnagar. We were the initiative of the camp. We were participating in it as volunteers. I also contributed in donating. All college even admin staff visited our camp. 

               We were pre-planned everything and working on this project from last few days. From preparing poster to completed camp all minor details we manage to do. We first go for convincing people and that is so strange that after so many request of us students are not ready to donate blood. Somewhere social myths and their fear are playing major role in thier negative response. Even we are not able to convince faculties. Some of the students shows great vigour in our activity.

              Day before camp we all went for some pre-preparation where we learn value of earlier arrangment. We and sir were arranging everything and sir's willingness to do even a small work without hesitation inspired us to do whatever task given to us with potential. As he convenienced all the students and took all of them in task so that they also felt that they are contributing. He single handedly manage everything and also appreciate every person for being there. On the morning we were reaching there earlier and arrange everything.

             Our target of the day was that we need atleast 35 people for donations. With an amazing response we got 83 candidates for donation and this shows that when you are doing some work for huminity everyone shall support you. All the colleges and aspecially students shown tremendous response not even them but some of the staff members were also came.

             "How health and hemoglobin is important in person's life not for others but for their own health" is the biggest lesson of the day. I am quite surprised in showing that most of the female candidates were not eligible for donations due to lack of Hb and not having enough weight. On the other hand most of the male candidates are eligible. So the ignorance of their health especially in women were somewhere become barrier and though they have willing desire to donate they were not able to do. 

          

              Our principal even other were appreciate us and they also put faith in us and that is why we are able to do such things. This is a Frist activity in which we are managing everything by  our own. Even the the team of Blood Bank were so friendly and humble with everyone. Concoletion prize, certificate and some snacks had given by them. Thier task was  challenging though with the paissions they do their work.

Mam was there with us and appreciate us constantly also asking every student who donated their blood for their health. She be with us and gave us courage.

This is my first experience of donating blood and I was so much excited for it. I am grearful that somehow I am eligible to donate blood. 

"Feeling proud because you're saving lives"  I found this line worthy because we not only studied the lesson but also put into real life with the help of our teachers. Value of blood is more than your fear so yes we successfully completed our camp. We will hope and looking forward for this type of activities in future.
