Locals came to support the South African National Blood Service (SANBS) blood drive, hosted by RE/MAX Homefinders in collaboration with GTR, MCR, and SSV Attorneys at the RE/MAX premises on June 24.

A total of 108 pints was donated.

Three lives can be saved for each pint of donated blood, and thanks to the public who donated theirs, up to 324 lives can be saved.
