The Indian Red Cross Society- Blood Donation Camp at Mantra Labs

As Albert Einstein said — only a life lived for others is worth living. Following the Nobel trail, Mantra Labs conducted a blood donation camp in association with the Indian Red Cross Society on January 9, 2020. 

According to WHO (World Health Organization), blood donation by 1% of a nation’s population can meet the minimum basic requirement. As per this norm, India requires 13.1 million blood units annually (1% of 1.3 billion population). However, since 2013, only 7-9 million units of blood are collected annually, which is much lower than required.

Mantra Labs’ humble contribution to save the lives in danger and encourage its people towards humanity was seen in their active participation.

In this virtuous initiative, more than 38 tech enthusiasts from the company’s headquarter at Bangalore, donated blood and many more registered themselves for emergency requirements. 

Donating blood was an excellent feeling in itself. I was not only motivated by the fact that I’ll be saving lives but also it made me feel like a Marvel Avenger. However, it’s the only way at your workplace to get some “me” time: relaxing totally guilt-free, all while saving lives! 😛
