WUJA Global Council Member Dr. Devendra Singh Inaugurating the Voluntary Whole Blood Donation Camp at Ranchi at 11.00 am on Monday, 25th November 2024, in support of Thalassemia Patients of Ranchi District. This Camp has been organized by “SEWA” The Old Students’ Association of St. John’s High School, Ranchi, India. 

Also seen in the picture are Rev. Fr. Ignatius Lakra SJ, the Alumni Co-ordinator of Ranchi Jesuit Province, Mr. Awadhesh Rai, Er. G.V.K. Sastry and Dr. Bhagat. 

The donor students seen here are just 18 years old. They are donating whole blood for the first time in their lives. An early indoctrination to this service helps us create life-time blood donors. 

Most of these children are also enrolled with the Indian National Cadet Corps, which is the nursery for future officers of the Indian Army, Indian Navy and Indian Air Force !
