When you donate blood, you give another birthday, another day to play with a child, another smile, another hug and another chance to make this world a better living place.

Indian Club Toastmasters Qatar (ICTM) in association with Indian Club, took up the noble cause of donating blood on December 12. The ‘Blood Donation Camp’ was coupled with ICTM’s ‘Promotional Booth’ at the venue to bring awareness among the public on Toastmasters International.

The camp was organised by Hamad Medical Corporation’s (HMC) Blood Donor Wing and supported by the volunteers from ICTM.

The criteria for blood donation was last six months stay in Qatar, Qatar ID, etc. Many generous donors from the club and outside the club, contributed for this noble cause.

The volunteers from the club provided takeaway messages to non-toastmasters on the benefits of being a toastmaster. The mission of a Toastmasters Club is to provide a mutually supportive and positive learning environment in which every individual member has the opportunity to develop oral communication and leadership skills, which in turn foster self-confidence and personal growth. 

ICTM is one of the leading clubs in Qatar, helping people not only develop their communication and leadership skills, but also demonstrate commitment towards community service.
