HKRI hosts first Blood Donation Day in Central, extends help to Tai Po

HKR International (HKRI) held its first Blood Donation Day in Central on Tuesday (Jan 13), drawing strong public support and helping ease Hong Kong’s blood supply shortage.

The event, held at the Discovery Bay Gallery on Level 2 of Central Pier 3, was organized with the Hong Kong Red Cross Blood Transfusion Service as part of HKRI’s ongoing Tai Po Relief Program. Blood collected during the event met nearly 10% of the service’s daily demand.

HKRI staff and management joined donors, demonstrating the company’s commitment to corporate social responsibility. The gallery provided a spacious and convenient venue for busy Central professionals to give blood comfortably.

“One bag of blood, countless hope,” said Charlotte Ho, General Manager of Branding and Marketing at Hong Kong Resort Company Limited.

“Guided by HKRI’s Care and Share philosophy, we will continue to transform small actions into collective strength, delivering greater warmth and care to Hong Kong,” she noted.

Many donors said they plan to continue donating, carrying forward the spirit of compassion.

HKRI said it will continue organizing community and health initiatives under its “Care and Share” spirit to foster hope throughout the city.
