SEVA is one of the precepts of Sikhi.
ਵਿਚਿ ਦੁਨੀਆ ਸੇਵ ਕਮਾਈਐ ॥
ਤਾ ਦਰਗਹ ਬੈਸਣੁ ਪਾਈਐ ॥
ਕਹੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਬਾਹ ਲੁਡਾਈਐ ॥੪॥੩੩॥ (ਮ:੧, ਪੰ:੨੫)
The spirit of the message is one must perform SEVA in the world, to achieve Salvation and free oneself from the worldly bonds.
Donating blood is SEVA, service to the community. Helping a needy in the hour of their need for blood.
It is very much in line with the Sikhi principles.
