Dear All IIUM Staff and Students,

IIUM – ANSARA RAMADHAN BLOOD DONATION CAMPAIGN 2016

May this information reach you while you are in the best of Iman and health by the Grace of All?h Subh?nahu Wa Ta^c?l?.

The office of Deputy Rector of Students Affair, IIUM is organizing a RAMADHAN BLOOD DONATION CAMPAIGN 2016 in collaboration with ANSARA Malaysia, IIUM Health and Wellness Centre and Office of Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah Mosque, IIUM.

The main objective of this Annual Nationwide Ramadhan Blood Donation Campaign, which is conducted simultaneously throughout the whole nation during the last weekend before the start of the holy fasting month of Ramadhan, every year, is to help stock up as much donated blood as possible in all the major hospitals in all the major cities throughout the nation in anticipation of a severe shortage of blood during the month of Ramadhan.

During the month of Ramadhan most of the Muslim population will not be able to donate their blood due to fasting. This annual nationwide shortage of blood will be made worse at the end of Ramadhan because of the increase in the number of road accidents and injuries during the exodus ‘Baik Kampong Raya’ festive season which will increase the demand for blood products when the supply will be at its lowest and critical.

Donated blood has a maximum shelf life of 42 days, after which it will be discarded if not used. Therefore, it is important that this unique and noble nationwide campaign has to be conducted and executed at the last weekend before the start of the fasting of Ramadhan, every year, to achieve its main objective.

The details of the programme are as follows:~

Date    : 30^th June 2016 & 01^st July 2016

Day     : Thursday & Friday
