Teej is a women-oriented Monsoon festival of Hindus which brings the joyous breeze of singing, dancing, and swinging to celebrate the prayers to deva. When the day, date, and time of Teej comes, tree swings and Fundi (Also spelled as Foondi) remain the highlight of the Teej celebration. There are three types of Teej that are celebrated with different significances, rituals, and beliefs. They are- Hariyali Teej, Kajari Teej, and Hartalika Teej. These all swing festivals bring a flood of prayers towards the Parvati and Shiva.

In May 2004, the 192 Member States gave their consent in the 57th World Health Assembly for addressing people for blood donation through a dedicated day, known as World Blood Donation Day or World Blood Donor Day. Thus 2004 became the year of establishment of this noble cause and the day of saving lives through giving blood. It witnessed the first united effort of urging people to become blood donors by generating awareness of the blood need and promoting safe, voluntary (unpaid) and qualitative blood. Since then, the human race has been observing World Blood Donor Day every 14 June to celebrate not just the donation of blood, but life.
