July: Month of the Precious Blood of Jesus
Our annual July blood drive took place from 26 June – 4 August and a pleasing number of donations were made to the SA Blood Bank. St Bernadette’s had the highest number of donations (this being our fourth parish blood drive) but Sacred Heart put up some stiff competition with the second highest donations, followed by St Martin de Porres in third place. We thank you for your wonderful participation.
The photos below represent only some of the donations made; many people chose to send in just an ‘arm’ pic, while others chose to remain anonymous. All in all, it was a great effort and we thank you for your participation again this year.
Special mention goes to Bernice of St Bernadette’s, who donated her 90th unit of blood this month. Thank you for your amazing commitment to the people of Port Elizabeth.
