The signing ceremony marked a significant step toward promoting voluntary blood donation and strengthening community engagement through collaborative initiatives.

The event aims to foster a sustainable partnership between the university and the Philippine Red Cross in supporting lifesaving blood donation programs. Through this collaboration, both institutions seek to encourage social responsibility, enhance community health services, and contribute to the continuous availability of safe blood for those in need.

Present during the ceremony were representatives from the University Extension Services Office: Ms. Eloisa Mendoza, Ms. Ma. Ferdelyn Coutinho, Mr. Dean B. Lapuz, and Mr. Aaron S. Malonzo; from the Office of Safety, Health, and Environment (OSHO): Ms. Rhiziel P. Manalese; and from the Philippine Red Cross Pampanga: Ms. Rowena M. Flores, Ms. Kimberly C.

Their presence reflects their dedication and shared commitment to delivering meaningful extension programs and serving the community through collaborative public service initiatives.

This partnership is expected to provide greater opportunities for students, employees, and community members to participate in regular blood donation activities. Beyond helping save lives, the project promotes volunteerism, civic engagement, and a culture of compassion, while strengthening the university’s role in advancing community welfare and public health.
