Aurora Blood Drive

15 March 2023 Categories Junior, Senior

Dear Parents,

For the third year running, Campion School will be hosting the Aurora Blood Drive; by now we all consider this a Campion tradition, one that saves lives by contributing towards easing the very serious need for blood.

The blood drive, organised by Aurora in collaboration with Evangelismos Hospital, will take place on Saturday 1st April from 9:00 to 14:00 at Campion. Aurora is an organisation that has its origins within Campion, founded by school parents in order to support people with hematological diseases. Please click here to visit Aurora’s website and find out more about its mission.

The procedure is easy, painless and completely SAFE. It will be performed by the experienced and trained staff of the mobile blood collection unit of Evangelismos and ALL the necessary safety rules will be observed. If you have any questions regarding the procedure or as to your eligibility to donate blood, please check the regulations below for details, and do not hesitate to contact us directly at prc@campion.edu.gr

Just 20 minutes of your time can save a life. Students in Year 13, who are already 18 years of age, are more than welcome to donate blood and contribute to a Campion tradition of caring. Friends from outside of school are very welcome to join us, too!

Please use the Campion-Aurora 2023 Blood Drive Sign -Up Sheet to register in order for us to have an idea of attendance and proceed with the necessary arrangements.

For your information, please find here a summarised version of the currently applicable Blood Donors requirements for Greece. For detailed information in Greek, please visit the EKEA website.

We look forward to seeing many of you and your friends there on the day!
