The Civil Service Commission (CSC) Regional Office X, in partnership with the Northern Mindanao Medical Center (NMMC) and the Northern Mindanao Medical Center Employees Union (NMMCEU), conducted a Bloodletting Activity called “Dugtong Buhay, Handog ng Lingkod Bayan” at CSC ROX, Carmen, Cagayan de Oro City, on September 19, 2023.  It was not the first time that the Civil Service Commission Regional Office X partnered with NMMC and NMMCEU since they had conducted bloodletting activities in the previous years.  

More than 200 government officials and employees from various government agencies in Region 10 went above and beyond their duty as public servants by donating blood through which other people may live. They epitomized the true spirit of the Lingkod-Bayani.

In the Opening Program for the Bloodletting Drive, Acting Regional Director and Acting Assistant Regional Director, Noemi Rabe-Torres and Cosette Maglasang-Mundo, respectively, of CSC Regional Office X, thanked NMMC and NMMCEU for partnering with them in the conduct of the activity, and all blood donors and their agency heads for participating in the Bloodletting Drive and other activities for the 123^rd Philippine Civil Service Anniversary
