Why Blood Donation Is Important
Blood donation is a life-saving humanitarian act. For patients suffering from Thalassemia, Hemophilia, Blood Cancer, Anemia, and for emergency cases, regular blood transfusion is the only means of survival. In Pakistan, especially in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, thousands of patients depend on voluntary blood donors every month. One unit of donated blood can help save multiple lives when separated into components.
