DIPOLOG CITY, May 14 (PIA) - - The Philippine National Red Cross-Zamboanga del Norte (PNRC-ZN) chapter observed the world red cross and red crescent day last May 8 with bloodletting and training on disaster and safety preparedness and leadership development to youth volunteers.

PNRC-ZN administrator Joshua Bicoy bared that some 48 bags of different blood types were collected during the bloodletting activity.

In a related development, a medical team from the city government here also conducted a bloodletting activity and was able to collect 38 bags of blood for the Red Cross blood bank.

The PNRC continuously conducts its blood donation campaign to encourage volunteers to donate blood to help people needing this commodity.

The blood is a commodity that saves life but cannot be manufactured. (FPG/PIA-Zambo. Norte)
