For the first day of blood donation at La Source, 94 people registered and the French blood establishment collected 57 bags of blood.
The Orléans La Source festival committee, the Escale association and the association of blood donors from La Poste and Orange have, for the first time, organized this day on Friday in partnership with the French establishment of blood: “Such a day had not existed for more than ten years and, given the health crisis, it was important to mobilize, it’s a success, it’s unexpected. “
A first time for eighteen Sourciens
Of the 94 people registered, “74 people were presented because several could not be sampled. 18 donated blood for the first time, ”confirmed Bruno Cazo, president of the association of blood donors.
To bounce back, the three associations have already planned a new blood donation day, September 10, from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m., at the Olympe-de-Gouges space, rue Édouard-Branly.
