A view of blood donation drive organised by the ISL Qatar with HMC.
Doha: As part of the Global Citizenship & Community Action (GCCA) programme, the Student Council of the International School of London (ISL) Qatar in collaboration with Hamad Medical Centre (HMC) organised a blood donation drive in the school’s campus recently. The day long drive was very successful with over 50 members of the school community who signed up to donate for the good cause.
The initiative of the drive was to raise awareness on the significance of blood donation and to save lives. It is an indication of the sense of social responsibility towards the community that the students at ISL Qatar hold.
Hamad Medical Centre appreciated the initiative and enthusiasm of the students and staff who contributed, as well as the demonstration of compassion and empathy.
The Global Citizenship and Community Action progamme at ISL Qatar encourages students to become caring, compassionate, responsible and knowledgeable global citizens, capable of making this a better world for all. GCCA offer opportunities to apply concepts, skills and knowledge, as students explore the complex global community, gain personal insight, develop existing and new skills, and grow in confidence and responsibility as they engage in the ‘real world’ beyond school.
ISL Qatar has an outstanding reputation for high academic standards, prestigious International Baccalaureate (IB) programmes and an impressive record of admission to the best universities worldwide. The student body of 1,000 are aged from 3 to 18.
