Forbes 30 under 30 finalists embark on a blood donation drive

The quartet of Thobo Khathola, Newman Ramatokwane, Tony Mautsu and Nigel Amos will start their campaign in Gaborone and extend the exercise to major centres in the country like Molepolole, Lobatse and Mochudi. Khathola said at a media brief this week that many people die as a result of unavailability of blood-- deaths that could have been avoided.

As businessperson, who owns a company that provides tutoring services, Khathola revealed they came together not only to donate blood but also to encourage people and corporates to support the cause. “We are business owners and masters of our own crafts. We have seen the need to do something good for our country by inspiring others to donate blood,” he explained.
