Ormoc City – The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Leyte 4th District Engineering Office (DEO) held a bloodletting activity on Friday, March 14, 2025, at the DPWH compound with the theme: “Donate Blood, Save a Life”. The event was made possible through the help of the Philippine Red Cross Ormoc City Chapter.
A total of 86 individuals stepped forward to undergo screening. Ultimately, 20 donors were able to meet the health requirements and each donated a full blood bag containing 450 milliliters of blood. These donations will help replenish the local blood supply and provide much-needed assistance to those in need of transfusions.
Assistant District Engineer Peter Scheler V. Soco extended appreciation to the employees who participated, as well as the Red Cross team who played a role in the success of this event. “Every drop of blood donated can save a life. We appreciate everyone who stepped up to help,” ADE Soco said. (PR)
