Blood Donation Awareness Month

Blood Donation Awareness Month, observed each September, aims to raise awareness about the critical need for blood donations. It encourages people to donate blood regularly to support hospitals, emergency services, and patients undergoing treatments such as surgeries or cancer care. Blood donations are vital because blood cannot be manufactured and must come from volunteers. The month also seeks to educate about the donation process, dispel myths, and motivate community participation, ultimately ensuring a steady supply of safe blood for those in need and saving lives.
