On the eve of World Blood
Donor Day, the "IV National Forum of Young Blood Donors” was held with the
partnership of the Red Hearts Foundation, Blood Donors Association, The Agency
for State Support to Non-Governmental Organizations of the Republic of Azerbaijan,
Central Blood Bank, and Fairmont Baku Hotel.
The forum aimed to support the
development of blood donation, promote the importance of voluntary blood
donation, and raise awareness in society about the restoration of the health of
children suffering from hereditary blood diseases.
Yusif Poladov, president of
the Red Hearts Foundation, spoke about the foundation's initiatives in the
field of volunteerism and the importance of the joint efforts of all
organizations in this area. "As a foundation, we understand our corporate
social responsibility and regularly implement many projects in this direction.
At the same time, all the relevant organizations participating here are
individually conducting interesting promotional work on this topic. Sharing and
combining these experiences will lead to significant and beneficial results for
the further increase of blood donation in our society. This is the main goal of
the forum and our expectation from this meeting.”
As a continuation of the
forum, 25 young participants will take part in 3-day training sessions
organized within the framework of the "Public Discussion Platform of Young
Blood Donors” project. Later, they will be involved in establishing a
"voluntary donor network” among young people in their regions.
It is worthy to note that,
Kapital Bank was awarded a "Certificate of Appreciation” by the Central Blood
Bank and Blood Donors Association for its active participation and support in
organizing the event, which was attended by official representatives of
partners, members of parliament, and distinguished members of society.
