Since 2016, the Shenyang CCC&TSPM in Liaoning Province has called on the city's churches to organize blood drives around Easter.

This year 815 Christians contributed to the drive and more than 288,000 ml was collected according to the WeChat account of the Shenyang CCC&TSPM.

The donation campaign lasted from April 2 to 15, 2018.

The Shenyang CCC&TSPM was honored by the Shenyang Center Blood Station as "an advanced unit of voluntary blood donation" in 2016 and 2017.

In 2016, 890 Christians joined in blood donations organized by the Shenyang CCC&TSPM, and one believer donated platelets. In 2017, the number of donors declined to 643.
