With the message: "Every drop of blood given - a life remains", Nghe Tinh Red Drop calls on members of the two Communal House Associations to participate in voluntary blood donation to create a blood reserve, overcoming the serious blood shortage.

The program was a great success, with more than 500 participants and more than 200 units of blood received. The amount of blood collected not only served poor patients from Nghe - Tinh who were being treated at the National Institute of Hematology and Blood Transfusion but also contributed to overcoming the blood shortage in many localities across the country.

In addition to blood donation activities, the Nghe Tinh Red Drops program also organizes cultural exchanges and games between the two Nghe An and Ha Tinh fellow countrymen's associations in Hanoi to strengthen the bonds of compatriots and call for support for poor patients from Nghe - Tinh who are being treated at the National Institute of Hematology and Blood Transfusion.

The program is also an opportunity for each Nghe - Tinh child to preserve and promote the tradition of solidarity, mutual love, daring to think and dare to do of our ancestors from the past to the present. Besides, it creates an environment for exchange, meeting and learning among members, connecting the feelings and fellow countrymen of Nghe people far from home./.
