WUJA Global Council Member Dr. Devendra Singh Inaugurating the Voluntary Whole Blood Donation Camp at Ranchi at 11.00 am on Monday, 25th November 2024, in support of Thalassemia Patients of Ranchi District. This Camp has been organized by "SEWA" The Old Students' Association of St. John's High School, Ranchi, India.

The donor students seen here are just 18 years old. They are donating whole blood for the first time in their lives. An early indoctrination to this service helps us create life-time blood donors. 

Most of these children are also enrolled with the Indian National Cadet Corps, which is the nursery for future officers of the Indian Army, Indian Navy and Indian Air Force !

The Paulites of Belgaum Worldwide (PBW), inspired by St. Paul’s values of "Men for Others," recently demonstrated their commitment to service by supporting aspirants of the Territorial Army recruitment drive in Belagavi. 

These aspirants, who traveled from all over India, came from economically weaker backgrounds, yet they arrived in Belgaum with hopes of serving our nation as soldiers. In response, the Paulites extended extraordinary compassion. PBW volunteers began distributing free meals the night before the recruitment began, initially serving over 800 meals.

By the next day, more than 2,500 aspirants were provided with nourishing pulao. Seeing a few left without food inspired the alumni to take further action, ensuring no one went hungry. A call for donations received overwhelming support, resulting in over 10,000 plates of food being served in the following days.

The St Xavier's School Annual Fete was held today , Thursday the 14th of November from 12 pm to 4 pm on the occasion of Children's Day .
