113 KA MGA BLOOD HEROES KARONG ADLAWA SA BARANGAY OBAY. ❤️

Malampuson natong nahuman ang 2-Day Mass Blood Letting Activity, nga nagresulta sa 334 generous blood donors—mga tinuod nga Blood Heroes nga andam mohatag og parte sa ilang kaugalingon aron makatabang sa uban. 🩸❤️

Sa Day 2 nga gihimo sa Barangay Obay, mikabat sa 113 out of the 100 targeted donors ang mipakita sa ilang suporta ug kasingkasing sa pagtabang.

Ang pag-donate og dugo dili lang para sa atong mga pasyente nga nanginahanglan. It is also an investment in our community—kay basin moabot ang panahon nga kita mismo, o ang atong pamilya, ang manginahanglan og dugo. By donating today, we help ensure that blood will be available when an emergency or medical need arises in the future.

Ako uban ang LGU Polanco kanunay nga magpaluyo ug mosuporta sa mga kalihokan nga sama niini, tungod kay atong tumong nga mas daghan pa kitang matabangan ug mas daghan pang kinabuhi ang maluwas. Doble Serbisyo, Duyog Asenso—para sa kinabuhi ug kaayuhan sa matag Polancohanon.

Dako usab akong pasalamat sa RHU Polanco, DOH-HRH, ZNMC, BHW, BNS, Barangay Councils of Silawe and Obay, ug sa tanan nga nitabang aron mahimong hapsay, organisado, ug malampuson ang duha ka adlaw nga kalihokan.

To our 334 Blood Heroes, daghang salamat sa inyong generosity, courage, and compassion. Your blood may be someone’s second chance at life. 🩸❤️

Sa usab! God bless Polanco! 💕
