Thereby, they have been directing the grassroots trade unions to propagate and mobilize the union members to participate in volunteering blood donation, promoting the spirit of charity among the union members and the workers and contributing to overcome the scarcity of blood in emergency and treatment at the Provincial General Hospital and the care and protection of the people's health.

Mr. Hoang Minh Tuan, the Chairman of the Trade Union of the provincial Industrial Zones, says this is the second year the Trade Union of the provincial industrial parks and the provincial Red Cross have organized the program for volunteering blood donation. This year, the number of workers registered has increased twice compared to that of 2018, attracting more than 477 volunteers who are the members of the trade union, the workers and the employees from the enterprises in Luong Son Industrial Parks. As a result, 305 units of blood were donated, becoming an additional source of blood, helping to cure patients.
