[vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]You don’t have to be a super-human to be a super-hero, especially when you have to donate blood! Yes, we are talking about blood donation, how vital it is, and how we, at the Synergy Group, are involved in this drive.
On August 8 we organised a ‘Blood Donation Drive’ in association with the Rotary Central-TTK-VHS Blood Bank, in Mettukuppam, Chennai. At least 100 enthusiastic ‘Synergy Blood Donors’ lined up for this noble cause, however only 71 people could finally donate blood. The remaining people were not ‘eligible’ to donate. Eligibility depends on a variety of reasons/factors, falling into two main categories. Firstly, if evidence suggests that donating blood could potentially harm you. Secondly, if evidence suggests that your donation could potentially harm the patient receiving it.
Understanding the importance and power of social media, we, at Synergy, also motivated our people to join this good cause through the ‘Synergy Facebook Page’.
At Synergy Group, we believe in returning back to society and this is inculcated into everything we do in our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) focus areas. Driven by our CSR objective and voluntarily committed to be socially responsible, at Synergy we desire to imbibe similar values in our global team. Blood is essential for life- it carries oxygen and nutrients throughout the body, fights infections, and helps heal wounds. And everyone has this self-generating resource that can be generously given to others.
Blood, probably, is the most precious gift that anyone can give to another person. A decision to donate your blood can save a life, or even several if your blood is separated into its components- red cells, platelets and plasma, which can be used individually for patients with specific conditions.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]
