World Blood Donor Day

Celebrating your gift of blood

14 June is a special day dedicated to celebrating and thanking voluntary non-remunerated blood donors. This event is called World Blood Donor Day.

«The event on 14 June is not intended to replace events such as national Blood Donor Days, but provides a special opportunity for a united, global celebration on a day that has particular significance: the birthday of Karl Landsteiner, the Nobel prize winner who discovered the ABO blood group system».
