Blood donations will ensure supply for emergency

SHANGHAI - Although their families were against it, the young couple Zhang Xin and Wang Hua rolled up their sleeves and donated blood for Expo 2010 Shanghai, marking their life with meaning.

"My family didn't support our decision. They said I should relax and prepare my body for pregnancy. True, I want a baby But we are in very good health. I don't think it would make a difference to my health," said the 27-year-old woman who works at an exhibition company.

Zhang is a member of a volunteer team formed by the China International Intellectech Corporation, a human resources service company. More than 20,000 white-collar workers in the city joined the team and serve society regularly.
