Phapros Collaborates with UTD RSUP Dr. Kariadi to Organize Blood Donation Drive
In celebration of its 70th anniversary, Phapros partnered with UTD RSUP Dr. Kariadi, Semarang, to organize a blood donation drive on Tuesday (11/6). The blood donation event took place over two days at the Imam Bonjol Office and the Simongan Plant.
The enthusiasm of the participants was evident from the number of registrants exceeding the quota. The blood donation started from 08.30 to 11.30 WIB, beginning with an initial screening phase, including blood pressure and hemoglobin (Hb) checks. Those who passed the screening were allowed to donate blood.
Throughout the event, the donation staff prepared all the participants' needs, ensuring a comfortable and safe experience for the donors. Each participant who successfully donated blood received a souvenir from UTD RSUP Dr. Kariadi and from the Social and Environmental Responsibility (TJSL) Department, specially prepared for the 70th anniversary of PT Phapros Tbk as a token of appreciation for the employees' contributions to this humanitarian action.
The special 70th-anniversary blood donation drive by Phapros successfully collected 105 bags of blood from all donor participants. On the other hand, more than 20 registrants did not pass the screening due to too low or too high blood pressure, hemoglobin (Hb) levels not meeting standards, and the influence of medications.
Regular blood donation stimulates the body's rhythm to form new red blood cells. Additionally, the initial screening can detect symptoms of diseases that the donor may have at the time of donation.
The TJSL Department remains committed to fostering awareness of the importance of health through blood donation activities. The blood supply in the blood bank must also be maintained to benefit those in need.
