Loyola College Blood Connect

As part of World Blood Donation Day celebrations in the year 2017 Loyola College has started an initiative named Loyola College Blood Connect. This is a directory of the NSS volunteers with their blood groups. Promoting more blood donation among youth.

Special Camp

To build social sensitivity in the youth, NSS always promoted rural live in camps where the students live with a selected community for a period of 10 days to have a real life experience of that community. Later these 10 days is reduced to 7 days by the University. A seven-day group living with limited amenities and the interaction with the community, give the student a first-hand picture of the struggle, a common man in that particular community has to face, to make both the ends meet. Normally, a socio-economically backward are will be the priority. Loyola has a history of vibrant and live memories of camp life, cherished by the various batches of 1963 onwards. This year was also not different. Instead of 10 days, university stipulated a 7-day camp and this year it will be conducted at karimkulam, a small coastal village near Poovar.
