NAGARKOT BLOOD DONATION PROGRAM

On the 1st of August 2010, Nagarkot Naldum Tourism Development Committee (NNTDC) in conjunction with NETIF and Nepal Red Cross Bhaktapur arranged a one day blood donation program. The program was a huge success attended by locals, hoteliers and business men from Nagarkot, NETIF board members, local police, tourists and other visitors. In all around 110 people successfully donated blood which immensely helped boost dwindling local blood supplies in hospitals.

The location was next to the Nagarkot tourist information center and tea and refreshments where supplied for visitors and donors.  During the day there where also pony rides going on and all participants for donation received a certificate of gratitude. It was also a great opportunity for the NNTDC and NETIF to showcase Nagarkot as a splendid tourist destination. Although the weather was not clear, there was still good views of the monsoon green valley’s beyond. A huge thank you needs to go out to organizers of the day and especially to all those good hearted people who donated blood….THANKYOU and please come back and visit Nagarkot again.
