Executive Director Afzaal Memorial Thalassemia Foundation (AMTF), Ateeq Ur Rehman has said AMTF is planning to hold blood donation and free Thalassemia screening camps. He said donating blood is healthy for the Donor in multi ways. Blood replaces the donated volume within 3 to 4 weeks which benefits general health. Pouring in fresh blood into body at intervals, reduces the risk of hypertension and help lower cholesterol level, too.
He appealed to people of Karachi, corporate bodies, universities and academic Institution, etc to fulfill rising needs of fresh blood for which we are always on the search of new venues. For our Thalassemia patients we need 550 to 600 pints of blood every month to be transfused to Thalassemic Children to save their lives. This is an ongoing nonstop process. He urged general public to support AMTF in organizing these camps for Thalassemic children. He added that donor's contribution in this regard will go a long way to boost morale of our dedicated team.
