A blood donation project was held successfully at Arellano University Pasay Jose Abad Santos Campus last October 3, 2008. The blood donation program is an annual activity organized by Level II Student council officers with the objective to encourage every AU student the benefit of voluntary blood donation.
The project was also made possible with the backing of Red Cross Pasay Chapter, Mr August Manzon, Ms Jen Mesde both AU faculty and under the guidance of Ms Ditas Hernandez, Level II coordinator and Arlene Blaise Cortez, Dean of the College of Nursing.
The project, dubbed as “Alay Mong Dugo, Karugtong ng Buhay Ko” was held at the AU Pasay Lobby, wherein 122 blood bags were collected from volunteer AU Pasay nursing students and then deposited at the Philippine National Red Cross.
