Blood can't be manufactured. It can only be transmitted from a donor to a needy person.

No matter how much is donated today, the need begins again tomorrow. This is why there is a regular, continuous need for donors — not just once, but repeatedly.

Five Reasons to Donate

Why donate blood? Here are five reasons — and one of them is entirely selfish.

1

You Save Up to Three Lives

One blood donation can save up to three lives — when separated into its components: red blood cells, plasma, and platelets.

Blood Donation is Good for YOU

As per the eRaktKosh Portal of the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India:

Regular donors are 88% less likely to suffer a heart attack

33% less likely to develop cardiovascular disease

Removes 225–250 mg of excess iron — protecting your heart

3

Someone Needs It Right Now

At this exact moment — a patient is waiting for blood. A surgery is delayed. A newborn needs a transfusion. Blood is not a future need.

It is a NEED RIGHT-NOW.

4

Delhi NCR Is Critically Short

Delhi NCR alone faces a shortage of 1,00,000 units of blood every year.

Imagine what the national statistics will be.
