On Tuesday last, BUFC, which finished as the runner-up team in the just concluded GFF/Stag Super 16 year-end knock-out championship, made their yearly trek to the Blood Transfusion Unit of the Georgetown Public Hospital to keep up a tradition that is in its fourth year.
Technical Department Head of the club, Mr. Lyndon France and five players donated blood which France stated has become a part of the club’s social responsibility.
“Donating blood has now become a part of our club’s yearly programme, players and management staff has agreed that we will do our part in assisting others by doing this on a yearly basis. As they say, blood saves lives and you never know, we might be saving the life of a footballer who will one day play for our team.”
