Dubai, May 6: Bunts UAE this year successfully conducted a ‘Blood Donation’ Camp at Latifa Hospital, Dubai on May 4, 2012 Friday with record number of donors’ participation.

Sudhakar Alva the main man behind this camp thanked the authorities for being tolerant and supportive in the camp and promised more contribution to the Blood Bank from all the Indian Communities living in UAE. The Donors poured in great numbers from various parts of UAE into Lathifa Hospital enthusiastically for this great cause.
