Organizing by Malaysian Red Crescent of MMU Melaka with collaboration of Hospital Melaka, IT Society MMU, Usrah Society MMU and Arabic Language Society MMU on the 28th June 2011 from 9.00am to 5.00pm at MMU Main Hall.

It is also opened to outsiders to feel free and contribute and join our mission.

The opening ceromony will be conducted at 12.00 noon by our guest of honour, Y.A.B Datuk Seri Haji Mohd Ali Rustam(Chief Minister of Malacca state).

World Blood Donor Day takes place on 14 June each year but we are organizing it on 28 June 2011. The aim is to raise global awareness. World Blood Donor Day is also an opportunity to celebrate those who already donate blood, in response to the worldwide increase in demand for voluntary non-remunerated blood and plasma donations.

Giving blood makes it possible for many people to lead normal healthy lives. Every year thousands of patients require blood transfusions in our hospitals, because they are undergoing surgery, recovering from cancer or have been in a serious accident. More than 1 million new people are diagnosed with cancer each year. Many of them will need blood, sometimes daily, during their chemotherapy treatment.

Date:- 28th June 2011

Time:- 9.00 am- 5.00pm

Venue:- Multimedia University, Melaka
