Jakarta, December 13, 2021 – Blood donation is a voluntary procedure with noble purpose that can help the lives of others. This activity is also constantly held by several groups and institutions. PT Bank Central Asia Tbk. (BCA) is one of the banking institutions that regularly holds this activity in collaboration with the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a form of support in optimizing the ongoing blood donation activities, BCA distributes operational vehicles for PMI DKI Jakarta through Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
The operational cars handover ceremony between BCA management and Blood Transfusion Unit (UDD) PMI DKI Jakarta was attended by Director of BCA Gregory Hendra Lembong, Executive Vice President CSR of BCA Inge Setiawati and received directly by the Chairman of PMI DKI Jakarta Province Drs. H. Rustam Effendi at BCA Tower on Monday (12/13).
“The COVID-19 pandemic that has occurred for almost 2 years has an impact on our daily activities, such as blood donations that since 1991 have been constantly held at the BCA head office, as well as BCA branch offices carried out all over Indonesia. We also hope that blood donation activities for employees and the community can be held again soon with strict health protocols. Today, we appreciate the collaboration that has been established with PMI. As a form of appreciation, we have distributed operational vehicles for PMI DKI Jakarta to support blood donation activities," Hendra Lembong said.
Through this activity, Bakti BCA donates bloodmobiles worth 500 million rupiah to UDD PMI DKI Jakarta. These cars can be used by PMI to hold blood donation activities at several locations.
“The support provided by BCA is also a form of call to action for the community to donate blood. We also hope that through this activity, we could support the development of facilities and infrastructure for PMI to hold blood donation activities," Inge concluded.
