Nghe An is one of the 6 provinces in the country that successfully organizes the annual “Red Journey” program to call on the community to join hands in donating blood to save lives. This is also the 6th year that the Central Steering Committee for Humanitarian Blood Donation has organized the program in Nghe An. Through each organization, thanks to good mobilization and propaganda, Nghe An has always mobilized and exceeded the set number of blood units.
