The Nigeria Medical Association (NMA), Rivers State Chapter, has emphasized that individual blood donations can make a significant life-saving difference.
In a statement released on Saturday, June 14, 2025, Dr. Siene Orogun, Public Relations Officer of NMA Rivers, quoted the Chairman of NMA Rivers, Dr. Tamunokuro Diamond, as saying that the organization celebrates the selfless act of blood donation and its profound impact on countless lives.
NMA Rivers disclosed that this year’s theme, “Give Blood, Give Hope: Together We Save Lives,” reminds everyone of the vital role each person can play in their communities.
“At NMA Rivers, we believe that every drop counts. Blood donors are true heroes, providing hope and healing to those in need. Whether it’s for accident victims, patients undergoing surgeries, or those battling chronic illnesses, your donation can make a life-saving difference.”
