DHAHRAN: Residents of Darin Island on Monday gathered at Salem Al-Mutawa Hall to participate in a blood donation campaign organized by Al-Jazirah Sports Club in collaboration with the Qatif Health Network.
The campaign, “Your Blood is Life,” is rooted in compassion and civic responsibility, the organizers said.
Reem Al-Hamdan, director of social responsibility at Al-Jazirah Sports Club and head of the organizing committee, said the campaign was more than a community event, it was a personal mission.
“When we believe that every drop of blood could mean a new chance at life, we realize that donating blood is not just a voluntary act, it’s a powerful humanitarian message,” she told Arab News.
Al-Hamdan was motivated to set up the event after visits to friends and family in hospitals, where she witnessed the struggles of patients suffering from anemia and other conditions that required transfusions.
