Mogaveers UAE and Bala Salian would like to dedicate all the appreciation and success to the donors.

Serving this cause is a service to humanity in the nation where we live in for our livelihood.

Due to the current shortage of blood during Ramadan, the Blood Donation Center, Dubai have humbly requested these volunteers to support them with more blood donations during the holy Ramadan month. With this call the team have successfully booked almost 4 to 6 Community organisations of Karnataka for the blood donation during holy Ramadan.

Mogaveers UAE, hereby request all the Indian and specially Karnataka Associations and Community people to come forward for this noble humanitarian cause. There are 650 Children/adults who are suffering from rare disease (Thalassemia) and they need 75 units of Blood per day.

So there is a huge need for more Blood and it is our duty to save life by donating blood. Donating blood would also decrease the possibility of having heart diseases and strokes. It also activates the bone marrow to produce new blood cells; hence please come forward and donate with love.
