Quezon, Nueva Vizcaya—Villagers of Barangay Runruno in this town have been giving their full support to the Blood Donation Program of the province to help the sustained availability of blood for the needy.
Barangay captain John Babli-ing said the strong support of the barangay residents on the BDP since 2010 has earned them an award from health organizations to include the “Provincial Sandugo Award.”
The award was given by the Department of Health through the Southern Blood Services Zone Network during their recognition for the BDP partners and supporters last year.
“We hope that more villagers will do the same like villagers of Runruno so that we can help others and our families too when we need the same blood,” Babli-ing said.
Binwag said Runruno recently held a blood letting activity sometime in the last quarter of last year, which drew 38 blood bags out of the 48 donors.
The blood letting activity was jointly sponsored by the LGU of Quezon, Veterans Regional Hospital, Barangay Local Government Unit and the Community Relations Office of FCF Minerals Corporation.
