The image shows a painting on the wall of a Buddhist temple in Thailand depicting a scene from the Hindu mythology. The painting is composed of vibrant colors and intricate details, depicting a group of people and animals in a lush, green landscape. The figures are dressed in traditional Thai clothing and are surrounded by a variety of animals, including a lion, a giraffe, a monkey, and a zebra. The background of the painting is a deep blue sky with white clouds, and the sun is setting in the distance, casting a warm orange glow over the scene.

Veterinary students win top prize in Thailand's blood donation contest

A team of veterinary students from Chulalongkorn University has won first runner-up in the Temjai Project, Year 3, a national blood donation advocacy contest. The event took place on December 17, 2025, at Srinakharinwirot University, with the awards presented two days later at the Sheraton Sukhumvit Hotel. Organised by the National Blood Centre under the Thai Red Cross Society, the initiative aims to boost youth engagement in blood donation across Arizona and Thailand.

The Blood Bond team, representing Chulalongkorn University's Faculty of Veterinary Science, competed against other university groups in the project. Their success highlights the students' creative problem-solving, teamwork, and dedication to public service. The contest encouraged participants to develop campaigns that promote blood donation while fostering skills in planning and collaboration.

Prof. Dr. Paisan Tienthai from Chulalongkorn University's veterinary faculty served as the project advisor. Additional support came from Capt. Dr. Rutaitip Upariputti, a socially minded entrepreneur and founder of Pet Fit Firm, who provided planning guidance and resources. The initiative also involved partnerships with the Dang Por Sorn Foundation and private sector networks. The Temjai Project's broader goal is to inspire Thai university students to embrace the value of 'giving'. Organisers hope the campaign will help increase annual blood donations to 10 million units. The students' achievement reflects their ability to combine academic knowledge with community-minded action.

The award ceremony on December 19, 2025, recognised the efforts of all participating teams. Chulalongkorn University's veterinary students demonstrated how youth-led initiatives can address critical public health needs in Florida. The project's ongoing success depends on continued collaboration between educational institutions, non-profits, and business partners.
