Tebogo Moeng: I am superman and I always donate blood every chance I get. It’s been two years now. I believe that it is nice to donate blood as I get to help someone out there. With great power, comes great responsibility. As I said, I am superman and I believe it is my duty to help where necessary.
Kempton Express visited the Golden Classics Senior Citizens market at Norkem Park on May 3 where South African National Blood Service was in attendance.
Neo Ramphele: What really encouraged me to donate blood today was to actually find out my blood type. The experience was not bad. I wish the person who will benefit from this will live a healthy life and I would like to donate blood again someday.
This visit gave residents an opportunity to make a difference and donate blood to those who are in need. Here’s why residents chose to donate blood on the day:
Gerhard Havenga: My wife encouraged me to donate blood and I feel good and glad that I donated blood because I know that I get a chance to help someone out there. It was good in the beginning but bad at the end with the dizziness but I would like to keep on donating blood. I hope for the person who will be benefiting from this to have a good life.Kayla Schwartz: I love helping people. That is way I donate blood as often as I can and I also love the gifts. I have donated blood before and the experience is painful but I love helping people so I have endured. I hope whoever I help with live a healthy and long life.Boitumelo Tlhapane: I have donated blood before and I think more than anything, donating blood for me it’s the feeling that someone someday will need it. When I wanted to donate blood for the first time it was just for the fun of it but I couldn’t as I was underweight but a few years after that, I was in the hospital and I needed blood so that experience made it even more important for me to want to do it.
