CATS Blood Donation Camp on 21st November

So moved I was with their enthusiasm that I forgot to write the date of the 4th CATS Blood Donation Camp.  It is at Blood Resource Centre in Sector 37, Chandigarh, on Friday, 21st November. 
And those of us who have not heard about CATS, it is a motley group of adventure minded entrepreneurs, professionals, CEOs, bureaucrats, academicians, home makers, and students who are a part of Chandigarh Adventures Treks and Sports.  Do read about their adventures on their blog.
And why CATS bleed every three months? Click here to know more.

CATS to organise 4th Blood Donation Camp

Every three months, CATS get into action and voluntarily start asking their leader CAT Supreet, sister of Rtn. Amrit Pal Singh, "Now when do we bleed next?"  In the last three camps, they have responded exceedingly well touching everyone with their true concern for the people who might need the blood to survive, and live again!

Now again, the CATS are ready to give blood in support of our Club's Heartline Project. This time their target is 55 units, so as to reach the 200 target with this camp having earlier contributed 145 units. And believe me they are as enthusiastic as ever. Rotarians, members of their families, and the staff from their offices are also welcome to join the noble task, and reiterate their commitment to humanity. 

The camp will be on from 8:30am onwards till 5pm at Rotary and Blood Bank Society Blood Resource Centre in Sector 37.

You can look at CATS blog for their earlier blood donation efforts.

Shan, a noted scholar, who would be speaking on "Guru Nanak's Poetry as a Medium of the Message".  The meeting shall be followed by pot-luck langar, which is being prepared so fondly by the families of Rotarians to share it together.
