Tugure Hosts Blood Donation Drive to Help Meet Blood Supply Needs

Jakarta - As part of its efforts to help meet blood supply needs, PT Tugu Reasuransi Indonesia (Tugure) collaborated with the Central Jakarta PMI (Indonesian Red Cross) to hold a blood donation drive at Tugure's office in Jakarta on Wednesday.

Tugure’s Operations Director, Erwin Basri, explained that this blood donation initiative is a tangible part of the company’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities, aimed at encouraging and increasing participation in blood donations as a form of care for others.

“We hope that this blood donation drive will help increase the blood supply at PMI, which can then be used for those in need,” said Erwin.

Themed "Your Blood Saves More than One Life," the blood donation event was attended by 153 donors.

Erwin added that Tugure holds this blood donation drive regularly, at least once a year, and it is open to Tugu Group employees and the company’s business partners.

“We are very grateful for the enthusiasm of all the invited blood donors who attended. I’ve noticed that the number of participants has continued to increase year after year,” Erwin noted.

Meanwhile, Isac Kharis Tahtawira, Head of Collaboration and Partnership at PMI DKI Jakarta, stated that Tugure's blood donation drive is highly beneficial, especially for the people of Jakarta, where blood-related conditions like thalassemia are on the rise, requiring PMI to secure around 1,000 to 1,200 blood bags per day.

“We hope that Tugure’s blood donation drive can inspire other community members to conduct blood donation activities,” concluded Isac.
