Extended learning: There is no substitute for blood. If people lose blood from surgery
or injury or if their bodies cannot produce enough blood, there is only one way to get
it- through transfusion of blood donated by volunteers. Blood is usually in short
supply. Donating blood does not decrease the strength of the donors.
Find out more about blood donation and create a poster to spread awareness about donation of blood
