IBBS launches web portal to access blood donors
The Indian Blood Bank Society launched www.indianbloodbank.com, a portal to help patients contact a donor and to let volunteers register as donors. The portal and the activities of the Kerala chapter of the IBBS were formally launched by the Minister for Revenue, Adoor Prakash. At the same function, actor Mohanlal — brand ambassador for the IBBS — presented awards to Ranjith S. of Kollam, Ravindran Panamkoora of Kozhikode and T. R. Rajiv Menon of Ernakulam for their individual efforts, and to the NSS Cell of NIT Kozhikode for its record of conducting blood donation camps.
“Recognising the efforts of people in blood donation and other humanitarian deeds has an added value, as it acts to motivate people in the society.”
