Food Lover’s Market in North Rand Road held a successful blood drive on October 7 and 8.
The South African National Blood Services (SANBS) collected 32 units of blood.
According to local donor relations practitioner Trude Gaarekoe, they collected 16 units on October 7 and 16 units on October 8.
She thanked Food Lover’s for helping the SANBS save lives.
Gaarekoe highlighted that one unit of blood can save at least three lives.
One of the blood drive organisers from the store, Kotie Vosloo, said they were happy with the outcome of the event.
“We have had successful blood drives in the past and we are excited about the next one,” said Vosloo.
She expressed her gratitude to those who supported and contributed towards the success of the drive. The date of the next blood drive is still to be confirmed.
