Blood Donation Camp

The drive saw an overwhelming response from both employees and interested individuals, with more than 100 participants, of which 80 were eligible to donate blood.

"Donating blood is a noble act that can save lives and make a significant difference in someone's well-being," said Parashuram, Assistant Manager, CSR at Aster RV Hospital. "We are proud of our employees who have come forward to support this cause and contribute to the betterment of the community. The Blood Donation drive not only thanked and treated the donors but also assured providing of free blood during times of emergencies of their families "
