You will not be faulted if you perchance considered it a national event by a political party or the congregation of saints at a gathering.
The scenes here at the Police Training School at Tesano, where the Despite & Special Group of Companies as part of their core corporate social responsibilities are organizing their annual blood donation exercise to help fill and restock the national blood bank with enough blood to help save lives of those in need of blood at the various hospitals across the country, are best seen than described.
Not even the multitude that thronged the event grounds the night of the event, gave an inkling of the record turnout to be expected.
Massive Turnout
According to the team from the National Blood Bank, by 8:10, over 200 people had donated to save a life.
In the queue currently, are over four thousand (4,000) people eager to donate for a worthy cause.
Medical Team
With some three hundred health personnels including nurses, doctors, paramedics, lab technicians drawn from the 37 Military Hospital, Ridge Hospital, Police Hospital, Korle-bu Teaching Hospital, Koforidua Regional Hospital, Tema General Hospital and the National Blood Bank in charge of affairs, you can be sure nothing wll go wrong; healthwise.
