Every drop counts
Performed my regular good deed today... I gave blood to the Red Cross.
You can only give blood, every 3 months, so this is my second time. It is pretty cool, especially you get out of work for 2 hours!!
The bus comes and pick you up from work, you get all the free juice and water you want. I had to drink atleast 6 to 8 cups of liquid before donating blood.
Then you spend about 30 mins giving blood and at the end you get free meal too.
We go to the Head Blood bank, so we get free food, if you go to the mobile blood bank you will only get some cookies and water =P
Anyway it is the giving which is important. Trust me it is not even painful. You get a finger prick to test your hemaegoblin count and the second jab is from the needle to get the blood.
So go out now and save some lifes and become a blood donor!!
