The most noblest of the act that anyone can do at any time... in fact every three months is to give blood.
On 25th and 26th, we saw two blood donation camps that Rtn Hassan Mejie conducted for the Club at Fatehgarh Saheb. The local administration was actively involved and the team of doctors from Rotary Blood Bank Society Blood Resource Centre, led by Col. Dr. R.S. Shah was there.
The Deputy Commissioner and other district functionaries were present on the first day. On the second day, Mr. Rajan Kashyap, Chairman of our Blood Resource Centre was the chief guest and even on the second day DC visited the place.
Our heartiest compliments to everyone who made these camps a success.

RCC Colony No.5 in news

The good work that the Rotary Community Corps, set up by our Club in Colony No:5, is making a world of difference to the residents. When the adult literacy program, 'Roshni' was conceived and launched, we were not expecting more than 25 women. But there were nearly 100 women who wanted to learn the basic alphabets and counting.
The credit goes to Pres. G.S. Lakhmna, Director Community Service Neena Singh, and Chairman RCC Rtn Hasan Mejie, who brought it together and nurturing it with all their heart and soul.
Chandigarh Newsline of Indian Express has covered the story beautifully today. Just click here to read it.
