Indian Catholic Youth Movement, a Premier youth movement of Mangalore Diocese reaches out to the society through various noble initiatives, one among them being ICYM Blood Account that was started in 2016 on the occasion of 70th year of ICYM as a unique step with a foresighted thinking to serve the society in a greater level.

Just like every drop of water makes an ocean, similarly the ICYM members came up with a thought that every drop of blood will contribute in fulfilling the vast ocean of blood requirement and thereafter coined the ICYM blood account as RED DROP CAMPAIGN on 15th August 2017 and held its donation camps in the Hospitals under ICYM Blood Accounts. This Blood donation campaign was organized to mark the 71st Independence Day and the 71st year of ICYM in Mangalore Diocese and also to publicize the ICYM Blood Account which was set up in 2016.

As days passed Red Drop started to draw more attention and began to setup up almost 15 – 20 Camps a year. Several members voluntarily donate blood on their birthdays along with their friends and families to Red Drop & promote several weekly blood donation drives to meet the hospital blood Requirements.
