𝗟𝗢𝗢𝗞 | In celebration of National Disaster Resilience Month (NDRM) 2025, the Disaster Response Management Division (DRMD) of DSWD Field Office MIMAROPA successfully conducted a bloodletting drive and DRRM exhibit on July 28, 2025, held at the DSWD MIMAROPA Conference Room.

The activity aimed to promote the spirit of bayanihan and encourage life-saving contributions from volunteers. It was participated in by DSWD personnel, partner agencies, and local stakeholders who generously donated blood in support of communities in need.

Today, a total of 42 blood bags were collected through the volunteers who dedicated their time and supported this cause. Truly, generosity saves lives.

Alongside the drive, the DRMD also showcased its programs, services, and key initiatives through a DRRM exhibit. The display featured informative materials on disaster preparedness, emergency response mechanisms, and the office’s efforts in strengthening community resilience across the MIMAROPA region.

The event served as a platform to raise awareness on disaster risk reduction and emphasized the crucial role of coordinated humanitarian response. DSWD MIMAROPA extends its heartfelt gratitude to all partners and donors who helped make the activity a success.
