The 100Percent Foundation, a local NPO, hosted a blood drive on August 24 in partnership with SANBS at Flora Centre. This was their third blood drive for Affinity Health employees and members of the public.
The foundation prides itself in involvement with various community projects and focuses on skills development within the community, and the blood drive was a project for some of its employees along with those from Affinity Health, while also allowing for community members to donate.
