Emergency Blood Donation Supporting Gen-Z

An Emergency Blood Donation Program was successfully organized on 9th September 2025 at Dattatraya Square, Bhaktapur. The initiative was led by Kuma Sagar and jointly organized by Rotary Club of Bhaktapur and Rotaract Club of Bhaktapur, in association with Nepal Red Cross Society, with additional support from Pioneer Open Crew.
