Plan : 2nd Blood Donation Camp

I am writing this post to have reference of planning aspect of the blood donation camp in an organization like mine (An IT Company).

I was in contact with HR person and met him 2-3 times , without any pre-decided meeting plan, and used to tell him that, its more that of 4 months now of the first camp. (It was in Feb 2009). And he was affirmative in that but was busy in some work and used to tell me that in 2-3 days we would plan. And finally he told me, to send the meeting request of the next day and we were ready to plan.I send that request to total 4 (3 of my friends who worked in the first camp and HR). None of my friend could join meeting and it was me and HR in the meeting room.

He was prepared and had date fixed with him. August 2009, 2nd or 3rd week. I said fine. I told him that as of now there are 963 registrations present in the portal. Both of us were not clear that, how many would actually come up in camp as its the second time we are doing this.I gave 2 suggestion for build up activities and he accepted.

1)Name of the Blood Donation Camp Contest : We did it first time on Feb 2009 and are in plan for second already, but there is no formal name for this. So we thought of having a open contest for all employee's to suggest the name of this activity. This would additionally help in spreading of word in company.
2)Design a mailer for Blood Donation Camp Contest : There are many facts that are related to blood donation and general people are not aware of some of them. We would circulate those facts to all, and the name decided from the activity above. The contest would require to design (in word,paint or ppt) mailer with it and send to us. We would receive few good mails that we need while actual activity and more people know about it.

These build up activities would also help in the increasing the count of blood donation registration too. HR also told me that we would do one more build up activity. We would organize a expert lecture for 'ladies' specially on the subject ' How to overcome the problem of less hemoglobin count'. This would help directly to many employees and indirectly would have less rejection count. These three activities are planned from next week one by one in order.

HR person had a prior communication with one of the major hospital already and that work is complete too. May be we would plan few medical lectures on various topics at the time of actual blood donation camp too, HR added.

Plan is drawn. Thank for visiting blog. Would update actual asap they occurs.
Take care.
