With Easter around the corner, it’s good to remember that:
-Greece’s annual needs in blood, range from 550.000 to 600.000 units
-30% of the population can donate blood, but less than 10% are blood donors and that
-1 blood unit can save up to 3 human lives!
That’s why our team in collaboration with Bloode is organizing an open blood drive this week, April 7–11, at the Children's Hospital “Agia Sophia” (Athens), from 08:30 to 14:00.
Checklist before donating:
-know your social security number
-eat a good breakfast a few hours before
-get a good night’s sleep and stay hydrated!
Remember: Blood donation has many benefits, not just for the recipient of the blood, but also for the donor!
Let’s turn blood donation from a challenge into a positive force. Help spread the word and make this a success!
