ABOUT US (PPC)

1. Introduction

The Blood for the World.Org Organisation is a non-profit Christian based Charity. It's main purpose is to encourage Christians to donate blood on a regular basis, as well as donating money to the organisation for distribution to other Charities.

Most Blood banks are striving to increase their numbers of regular donors of 'safe' blood. The most serious threat to 'safe' blood is from AIDS and other blood transmitted diseases.It is felt that as Christians we should be living a life that reflects a certain moral code.

This moral code should ensure that our blood is 'safe' for transfer to others. Not all Christians are able to donate 'safe' blood for a number of reasons. We are not here to judge anyone, but would like to challenge other Christians, who can, to donate the gift of life.

Christ gave His blood for all of us, to set us free, so let us follow His example and give our blood for the world. Some people tithe money, some people tithe their time and some people tithe both. We want people to also consider tithing something of themselves - by donating a pint of blood regularly.

2. Operation

Donors will register via the internet on the www.bloodfortheworld.org website. They will obtain a membership logon and password, which they will then use to logon and record their latest donation. As they donate more regularly they will accumulate points. They will be rewarded for reaching certain milestones. The information collected can be verified with the various Blood banks and can be used to measure effectiveness.

3. Donations

We will encourage people to support the organisation in terms of voluntary donations. This can be any sum that they feel comfortable with, either when they donate blood or on a more regular basis.

Some Blood banks in certain parts of the world actually remunerate donors. We would appeal for that money to be donated to the organisation as we want the blood donations to be a sacrifice, a tithe and not for gain.

4. Other Income

Voluntary Blood banks who do not remunerate donors could be asked to consider a donation of a certain percentage of the revenue received on the blood donated by our new donors or lapsed donors.

Other voluntary donations would always be welcome.
