Blood Banks Need More Donors. This Pune Initiative Is Encouraging People to Step Forward
Shivajinagar, 13th June 2026: Marking World Blood Donor Day, MenloRealty organised a blood donation drive at City Square Building in Shivajinagar on June 13, bringing together employees, associates, social organisations, and members of the community in support of a life-saving cause.
The initiative witnessed enthusiastic participation throughout the day, with voluntary donors stepping forward to contribute towards maintaining critical blood reserves required by hospitals and healthcare institutions. Blood donation remains one of the most effective ways individuals can support patients undergoing surgeries, emergency treatment, and long-term medical care.
The drive received active support from the Inner Wheel Club of Pune and Round Table Pune, whose members participated in the initiative and contributed to its successful execution. Their involvement reflected a shared commitment to community welfare and social responsibility.
The event was also attended by Rahul Mahiwal (IAS), Commissioner of Agricultural Research and Education, Pune, whose presence underscored the importance of voluntary blood donation and community-driven initiatives that contribute to public well-being.
Speaking on the occasion, Sachin Agarwal, Director of MenloRealty, said, “Blood donation is one of the simplest yet most impactful ways of giving back to society. Through this initiative, we wanted to encourage people to come forward and contribute to a cause that directly helps save lives. We are grateful to all the donors, partner organisations, and volunteers who made this drive a success. At MenloRealty, we believe businesses have a responsibility to contribute positively to the communities they serve.”
Observed globally on June 14 every year, World
