International Volunteer Day: UN Albania staff donate blood for children suffering from thalassemia

There are 400 children with thalassemia in Tirana, who need a pouch of blood every two weeks to live normally. Donating blood is an act of great humanity, “the gift of life”.

This International Volunteer Day, UN Albania staff in cooperation with Red Cross Albania donated blood for these children.

We thank all colleagues for this precious act in a symbolic day.
