Minimum requirements include:
• Age between 18 and 70

● 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.
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.
Eat iron-rich foods, such as beans, spinach, iron-fortified cereals, or raisins, and drink extra liquids. Get a good night's sleep.
Don't come fasting! Have tea, coffee, fruit juice, biscuits, toast with jam... Just avoid milk and milk derivatives, and fatty foods.
Don't forget to bring your passport or a valid ID. It is required for the donation.
