We need to make sure there is the right blood available for patients throughout the year. To do this we run local and national campaigns to encourage volunteer blood donors. 85 percent of the Island wide blood need is fulfilled by mobile blood campaigns.
Here you can find mobile blood donation campaigns that are organized all around the Island.
