        abstract = {Background: Adequate and safe blood supply is essential for healthcare, yet voluntary blood donation is often limited due to lack of knowledge and misconceptions. Students form a highly eligible donor group, and improving their knowledge can strengthen voluntary donation rates. Objective: To assess the effectiveness of a Structured Teaching Program (STP) on knowledge regarding blood donation among students of Narayan Nursing College (NNC), Jamuhar. Method: A quantitative pre-experimental one-group pre-test post-test design was used. A structured knowledge questionnaire was administered to 60 students selected through convenience sampling. After the pre-test, an STP on blood donation was administered, followed by a post-test after one week. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The mean pre-test knowledge score was 12.45 ± 3.21, which increased to 22.78 ± 2.94 in the post-test. The calculated paired t-value (t = 18.42, p < 0.001) indicated a statistically significant improvement in knowledge after the intervention. Conclusion: The Structured Teaching Program was highly effective in improving students’ knowledge regarding blood donation. Regular educational interventions can help build a knowledgeable and motivated pool of voluntary blood donors.},
