FINALLY DAY OF THE CAMP

Today the 10th of November was an important day to all the volunteers, all of them were asked to come by 8:15am. The volunteers came in and finished their jobs of having the rooms ready for the blood banks by helping them carry their equipments.                             

  All the Group leaders guided their team members to their respective blood banks and all took their positions. The volunteers had been told to check the weight of the donor confirming whether they were fit enough to donate blood and to make sure they had enough food prior to donation of blood. By 9:30am donors rushed in, all volunteers got busy and guided all donors in all perspectives that are right from the registration, till they are done with donating. The aftercare volunteers helped and made sure the donors never felt tired or fainted. They served them with sufficient requirements.

 

 The most disappointing part was the people being sent back as they were not fit to donate. After each successful blood donation, the donor received an appreciation certificate for their humanity.

While the camp had begun and was in full swing, our respected chairman Mr. Seetharam, Principal Mr. Rajnikanth and other dignitaries made the environment even more enthusiastic and colourful by their presence, while they visited every blood banks and interacted with some of the donors.

Towards the end of the day the NSS volunteers who had finished their work turned up to the blood banks and donated their precious blood leaving an outstanding impression of service as well as devotion towards the work. Finally the Team NSS had an excellent Snap all together.
