A Resolution recognizing June 14, 2024, as "World Blood Donor Day" in Pennsylvania.
This bill formally recognizes June 14, 2024, as "World Blood Donor Day" within the state of Pennsylvania. It serves as a commemorative resolution intended to raise awareness about the critical need for volunteer blood donors to support local hospitals and cancer patients. The text highlights statistics regarding blood donation frequency, the high demand for O-type blood, and the low current participation rates among eligible residents. By designating this specific date, the legislation aims to encourage community engagement with blood drives rather than implementing new operational rules or funding.
