On June 15, 2010 a blood donation drive was organized at Kansai Nerolac Paints Ltd, Nerolac House, Lower Parel, where an overwhelming response from the employees resulted in a total collection of 70 donors. Yet another blood donation drive was organized on June 16, 2010 at the Head office of Sodexo Facilities Management Services India Pvt. Ltd., Malad West, where 50 enthusiastic donors turned up, despite the heavy rains, to donate blood for a needy cause. Many who could not donate blood themselves contributed by motivating other young people to become donors. This celebration continues to the end of the month to create awareness among the young people on the importance of voluntary blood donation and encourage them to register as regular blood donors to ensure an adequate and safe blood supply to the National Blood pool.
