The donated blood donation certificates will be delivered to pediatric leukemia and cancer patients in need of transfusions.
CJ Logistics encourages nationwide employee participation in blood donation volunteer activities regularly every month to help address the local blood shortage crisis. According to the Blood Management Headquarters, as of this date, the daily blood supply is 4.1 days, which is below the adequate blood supply level (5 days), remaining at the 'attention' stage of the blood supply crisis. Due to the prolonged social distancing, individual and group blood donations have sharply decreased, resulting in a continuous shortage of blood supply since last year.
From the 13th to the 15th of next month, a three-day 'Hope Sharing Blood Donation' volunteer activity will be conducted, where group blood donations will be carried out together with headquarters employees. This campaign will be held in a 'Private Blood Donation Gift Car' equipped with a personal blood donation environment to prevent COVID-19 infection.
CJ Logistics has practiced sharing by donating blood donation certificates collected through employee participation to employees and their families in need of transfusions, as well as pediatric patients battling intractable diseases. The total number of donated blood donation certificates has reached approximately 4,900 so far.
