On the Public Holiday of St. Paul, at the Cottonera Sports Complex, athletes, coaches and officials along
with walk-ins donated blood. Throughout the year, the Blood Donation Mobile Unit travels to various
locations and places of work. This makes it easier and more appealing to recruit new blood donors,
especially those with limited free time. The mobile unit gathers around 3000 units of blood per year and
has established itself as a vital supplier of blood.
The event took place at 10am till 1pm where throughout the event over 40 individuals from different
paths of life came together to help out those in need. To each individual that came to donate blood, a
small token was given as a thank you which consisted of a mug and stress ball which was used during
the process of donating blood.
As always SportMalta is satisfied after another successful event and looks forward to organising more
events for the community and helping out different parts of our social groups.
