This act of active solidarity, which is part of the celebration of ” World Rare Disease Day “, took place on Tuesday, February 28, 2023 at the level of the headquarters of Ooredoo in Algiers as well as at the level of its two regional headquarters of Oran and Constantine.
Speaking on the occasion, Ramdane Djazairi, stressed the importance of such an initiative for his company which encourages its employees at every opportunity to donate their blood to save lives “today more than a hundred employees responded to the heart’s call to donate blood in three wilayas of the country”.
Having become a tradition over the years at Ooredoo, this solidarity action, which is experiencing growing interest from year to year, has materialized through a great mobilization of volunteer employees who have responded favorably to this call from the heart, thus expressing their solidarity with Algerian society through this simple, noble and humanitarian gesture.
