Repost. 🚑 Did you know you can get discounted health care, (possibly free) health care in Thailand if you donate blood? For Non-Citizens too!

Includes Child-Birth costs.

Discover the power of compassion with the Red Cross in Thailand! 🇹🇭

💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝

Discounted health care for regular blood donors. Both Citizens and Non-Citizens.

For those who have been around the group a while, you'll know we had some info a few months back that the Thai Red Cross actually provides discounted health care to those who regularly give blood. The Admin of the Thai Citizenship Facebook Group wrote this article.
