There’s a running argument about donating blood these days. That awareness isn’t enough, that it’s cost is too high and people are apathetic towards blood donation, that for a movement of mostly poor college students not much change or response will come.

Well if you were there on 20th February 2017 at Sampurna Montfort College this notion would have been dissipated instantly.

On this bright Monday morning Little More love, Lions Club and Bowring & Lady Curzon Hospital organized Gift a pint 6.0  and the donor turnout was a sight to behold!

Blood donation is the dire need of the hour, there are only 40 lakh units of blood available, while the national demand stands at about 4 crore units. Every piece is integral to saving lives and if you’re are willing to donate there are things you too can do, because what is a movement if it’s not backed by action.
