REINFORCING its commitment to social causes, Doha Bank recently hosted a blood donation drive at its headquarters in West Bay.
Organised in partnership with Hamad Medical Corporation's (HMC) Blood Donor Unit, the initiative was aimed at shoring up national blood reserves and creating wider awareness of the need for regular blood donations, given the short shelf-life of blood components.
The blood donation drive saw enthusiastic participation of 39 members of the Bank's staff as well as individuals working in offices in the vicinity of the Doha Bank Tower.
"The need for blood is constant, and so is the need for donations. As well as serving a vital social cause by providing a lifeline to those in need, donating blood can have health benefits for the donors themselves as the body replenishes the blood you donate, thereby cleansing your blood supply," said Dr R Seetharaman, Group CEO of Doha Bank.
Doha Bank is encouraging people to visit the Blood Donor Unit situated at the HMC complex near Sports Roundabout, or contact on '44391081' or '44391082' for more information. (TNN)
