Voluntary blood donation at the city hall of Thessaloniki "Donate blood and save a life today"

The voluntary blood donation that was organized by the "Act of Kindness" organization, in collaboration with the "Ippokrateio" General Hospital of Thessaloniki, took place on Sunday, November 24th, at the city hall of Thessaloniki, and turned out to be a great success. The presence of the Mayor of Thessaloniki, Mr. Konstantinos Zervas, of the Vice Mayor of Social Affairs, Mr. Haris Aidonopoulos and of the president of Medionpron, the International Center of Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment, Mr. Konstantinos Fanariotis, was a solid proof that the competent bodies do engage in acts that promote the general welfare.  

The public’s response was immediate, since many of our fellow citizens turned up in order to perform an act of kindness. What was particularly surprising was the fact that many of the people who showed up were of a young age and also in groups. This shows that the institution of blood donation grows stronger over time. 

The event was organized under the support of the Vice Mayor of Social Affairs.
