PT WIJAYA KARYA (Persero) Tbk. (WIKA) held a CSR program in the form of Convalescent Plasma Donors at the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) office, Jakarta, Saturday (17/7). As many as 25 WIKA Covid-19 survivors attended as donors after going through a screening process which took place the day before.
Convalescent Plasma Donation is interpreted as an initiative driven by a sense of humanity and the efforts of WIKA employees to help brothers and sisters who are struggling to recover from Covid-19. Convalescent plasma itself is blood plasma of Covid-19 survivors that contains antibodies and can be used as a therapy to accelerate the healing of Covid-19 patients.
This convalescent plasma donor activity is the second time that WIKA has held. Previously, the Company had facilitated its employees, including one of the WIKA Directors, to carry out similar activities in December 2020. It is planned that this program will be carried out regularly so as to provide greater benefits.
