National University gets the Gawad Apolinario Mabini Award
National University received an award during the Dugong Bayani Awards 2024, last October 10, 2024. The Gawad Apolinario Mabini Award was given by the Department of Health, Philippine Blood Center in recognition of NU’s consistent commitment to community extension. This award acknowledges our outstanding efforts in conducting mobile blood donation activities from 2020 to 2023, resulting in an accumulated collection of 200 to 299 units of blood.
Through the collective effort of our students, employees, and partners, we’ve played a significant role in ensuring that lives can be saved in times of urgent need. Every drop of blood donated has helped individuals in need of medical attention, trauma patients, and those battling severe conditions that require blood transfusion. This accomplishment reflects our unwavering dedication to service and social responsibility—key values that define National University as an institution with a heart for the community.
