TECOM Investments Organizes Its Annual Campaign to Drive Blood Donation

TECOM Investments, a member of Dubai Holding has once again collaborated with Al Wasl Hospital to organize the annual Blood Donation Drive at Dubai Internet City and Dubai Knowledge Village free zones, in its continued efforts to support Thalassaemia patients.

In its 7th year running, the campaign attracted a considerable number of volunteers from TECOM Investments and family entities including Dubai Internet City, Dubai Media City and Dubai Knowledge Village. The blood donation initiative was launched in June 2001 and has since been successfully held twice every year.




Abdullatif AlMulla, CEO of TECOM Investments said: ”TECOM Investments is always keen to support community needs, like the blood donation drive as it gives hope to patients who suffer from Thalassaemia, an inherited blood disorder that remains prominent among young children in the UAE. Besides raising awareness for blood donation, we would like to support children who suffer from the genetic disease and hope that by making enough blood banks available, we will be able to save as many lives of young children as possible.




We would also like to thank all those who have supported the cause including members of TECOM Investments and our business partners who have contributed to ensure the continuing success of the initiative. Thanks to the generosity of blood donors, countless people have been able to live and enjoy an improved quality of life. We urge healthy people to come forward and make a positive difference to someone’s life by donating blood.”




TECOM Investments has helped to organize 18 blood donation drives since the initiative’s inception, and has demonstrated a great commitment to serving the community on many levels. Projects and initiatives include encouraging budding IT entrepreneurs in the region, promoting diversity in the workplace and implementing recycling and energy conservation programmes in the freezone.
