In accordance to World Blood Donor Day in June, MMCOG also held a Blood Donation Campaign in September to support the notion and help the cause. The event which garnered the sponsorship from  Malaysia’s National Blood Centre (Pusat Darah Negara, NBC/PDC) was a one day session on 26 September 2016.

There are more than 50 staffs participating the event, comprising from both corporate and technical divisions. The one day event, from 10:00am to 4:00pm championed the slogan, “Every 2 seconds, someone needs blood” in comparison to the year’s theme of “Blood connects us all” as well as official slogan from WHO, “Share life, give blood”.

The main purpose of the blood donation campaign is to once again raise awareness and continually serves as a reminder that the role of voluntary donation systems play in encouraging people to care for one another and promoting community cohesion.
