October 2024
On 23 October 2024, Performance Additives, in collaboration with the National Blood Centre (NBC), held a blood donation drive at its Malaysian headquarters in Subang Jaya as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives for the year. The event aimed to contribute to the community by supporting the NBC’s mission to maintain a sufficient and safe blood supply for those in need.
Despite the strict eligibility criteria set by the NBC, which is designed to ensure the safety of both donors and recipients, 40 employees successfully donated their blood. Their generosity reflects the spirit of giving and the desire to make a positive impact beyond the workplace. To acknowledge their contributions, each donor received a certificate of appreciation from the NBC.
This blood donation highlights our efforts to give back to the society and creating a culture of care and responsibility. By organising such initiatives, we hope to inspire others to consider the importance of blood donation and how one simple act can make a world of difference.
