Our role in the international community

Doctorsa is a health-tech startup accelerated by Bocconi University of Milan.
In the past years we organized a series of blood drives in Rome #GivebacktoRome and in Milan #GivebacktoMilan allowing the local community of expats, students, and foreigners to put in practice their generosity by sharing their own blood with the city they have chosen as their current home.

 

We are now launching our very first blood drive event in the city of Madrid!

 

 

We are waiting for you:

Every few seconds, someone in Spain needs blood

● Those who have been involved in serious accidents, like a car crash
● Those who need a surgery
● Mothers giving birth
● People with blood disorders, such as sickle cell patients
● Patients being treated for cancer
● Leukemia patients

People like you, whose life depends on the kindness of others. Be the kind one, help save lives.

 


 

How you can help

Giving blood is a selfless act of kindness, but we’ll be offering you: 

● A free check-up of your blood
● A day off from work (if you wish)

And, most of all… the joy and fulfillment of knowing you’ve been of help. 

Come donate blood, if you can.
