FP&M SETA | INTERVIEW
CANCER AWARENESS AND BLOOD DONATION Experts say that humans benefit greatly from blood donations, therefore, cancer awareness months should serve as a reminder that families must be vigilant and ensure that annual check-ups are done. Everyone has the most precious natural resource of all: blood. Our blood is replaceable, life is not. So let’s roll up our sleeves and save a life. Donate blood. “It is with this in mind that the FP&M SETA has partnered with the SANBS to host blood donation drives in Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town. Also, FP&M SETA will partner with some academic hospitals to support research, development and innovation, as part of the CSI”. Leadership should continue to find time to support such initiatives to ensure that our communities at large are not only educated on these matters but learn where and how to find help and receive the best treatment protocols. Individuals and entities that are already supporting can do more, with most of us joining in support of saving lives.
