On World Blood Donor Day, inspiring stories from the Chinese mainland remind us that every drop counts! 22-year-old Dong Jun, about to graduate from Beijing Jiaotong University, marked a milestone by donating blood. As he said, "Blood can't be artificially manufactured—hospitals rely mainly on community donations."
For Dong, this act was a heartfelt way to give back to his university community before he embarked on his next adventure. Having first donated at 18, his consistent contributions show that even small acts of kindness can create big ripples in society. 🩸
Another inspiring voice is Li Zhaoyi, a counselor at the School of Electronic and Information Engineering. Motivated by a personal experience when a family member received a life-saving transfusion, Li donated for the second time and even registered as a volunteer hematopoietic stem cell donor. His simple truth, "Being able to help others brings me real happiness," fuels his commitment to supporting others.
This rewarding campaign launched by Beijing Jiaotong University comes as a response to the pressing need for blood supply highlighted by the Beijing Red Cross Blood Center. It’s a call for young adults and educators alike to unite, because in our fast-paced digital era, every little act of selflessness can light up hope and save lives.
So, whether you're celebrating a personal milestone or just looking for a meaningful way to make a difference, consider joining the movement. Roll up your sleeves and let your donation be the spark that changes lives! 💖
