Parashuram, Assistant Manager, CSR at Aster RV Hospital, expressed the need for continued awareness programs: 

“Despite being part of a corporate ecosystem, many employees lacked awareness about the importance of blood donation. Initiatives like these are critical to ensuring adequate supplies for blood banks and encouraging more individuals to become regular donors.”  This camp is a testament to the impact of corporate-community partnerships in addressing critical healthcare challenges and underscores the need for regular awareness campaigns to bolster blood bank reserves.
