DonorUA organized three Corporate Blood Donor Day events for SQUAD. At these events, a total of 57 SQUAD employees shared blood with military and civilian patients.
On October 31, 5 employees donated blood at the Lviv Regional Blood Center, and on November 3, the events took place in two SQUAD`s offices in Kyiv simultaneously with medical teams from the Kyiv City Blood Center and the Amosov National Institute of Cardiovascular Surgery. Photos from the event are here.
57 donors equal more than 25 liters of donated blood that saves lives. Each donation is an opportunity to give hope to three people in need of blood or bloods components transfusion. Any of us can find ourselves in such a situation, and the development of a culture of donation is the key to timely help for all of us.
Corporate Blood Donation events are an opportunity for businesses and government agencies to join the donor movement in an organized way. Such events develop corporate social responsibility of companies and the culture of donation in society. If the event is paid for, the funds raised allow DonorUA to organize other thematic events to attract donors, conduct educational activities and transport donated blood to the frontline regions.
