But these Volunteers with the blessings of revered Saint Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh Ji Insan are always waiting for an opportunity to be of some service to Humanity and such days are like a boon to these warriors of Humanity. The first Activity conducted this day, was a blood donation Camp at 51-65 Clarke street, Southbank in Melbourne city for Australian Red Cross Blood Services. The donation was started at 10 am by 20 volunteers, of which 9 Volunteers donated whole blood and 11 donated Plasma. Red Cross really appreciated the Volunteers for helping them in saving lives on regular basis. The Volunteers at Melbourne have donated approx. 483 units of blood in last few years. At the same time, the Volunteers had another tree plantation with Hume City council at the End Of Horne St, Campbellfield Victoria and the timing was 10 am to 2 pm. It was a special plantation organised by council on the name of Shah Satnam Ji Green ‘S’ Welfare Force Wing. 54 volunteers of Dera Sacha Sauda participated in the campaign and completed the plantation in just 1 and half hour. The Council head Melissa is so amazed at the speed of Volunteers, that she has given a new title to the Volunteers as ” A PLANTING MACHINE”. 1150 trees were planted in no time by the Volunteers. The Council was highly thankful for this great act by Shah Satnam Ji Green ‘S’ Welfare Force Wing Volunteers. At the same time around, 10 volunteers went to North Cumberland Rd, Pascoe vale to help Moreland Council with planting trees with a target of around 150 trees in 2 hrs and the Volunteers, the real Planting Machines finished it by 11:30 in just 1 and 1/2 hr.
Another team of 20 Shah Satnam Ji Green ‘S’ Welfare Force Wing Members went to 5 Mile Creek, end of government Rd, Essendon and planted 100 trees in just 1 hr. The friends of Moonee Ponds Creek said they had never received that much help from anyone, as provided by the Volunteers of Dera Sacha Sauda. For them, planting these 100 trees used to be a struggle, but now their views had changed and from next time, they will be targeting more trees as nothing is impossible when this Welfare Force is there.
