Doctor Ha Thi Thanh Huyen - Head of the Blood Transfusion Department of Vietnam National Children's Hospital - expressed sincere gratitude to Van Phu - Invest and its volunteers. The doctor shared that in recent times, the Vietnam National Children's Hospital has fallen into a state of serious overload blood usage and lack of blood reserve. Therefore, there are times when to give timely emergency to pediatric patients, doctors and nurses must directly donate blood. Therefore, this program is vital for patients and is an encouragement and essential support for medical staff.
Spread kindness further
"Although I have participated in blood donation many times, this time of blood donation is more special for me when the donated blood will be given to children. As a mother, I understand, sympathize and feel sad when I see children in critical situations needing blood. So, when I know that my gift of life can save a child, I'm ready and happy to give," shared Le Ha Trang, a resident of The Terra - An Hung project.
Volunteers joined enthusiastically and joyfully.
Like Ms Trang, Mr Nguyen Hoang Ha, a resident participating in blood donation, said: "I am excited that there is such a meaningful program like this right at the building where I live. It is well-known that each time we donate blood, we can save up to three lives. For pediatric patients, one unit of blood can even save 4 to 5 children, so I feel very proud. Thank you to Van Phu - Invest for organising meaningful activities, which not only help connect the community here, but also create conditions for us to do more good things."
