Calling all blood donors on September 29

visuel_je_donne.png The French Blood Service (EFS) is keen to remind everyone that giving blood really can save lives. The EFS also points out that blood products have a limited shelf life and that there is an ongoing need: 10,000 people have to give blood each day to meet the needs of the EFS.

Giving blood is a generous, selfless and community-minded act. Your blood donations help treat a million people every year.
 
A blood drive will be held on campus on Thursday September 29, from 10am to 3.30pm in modules 1 and 2 of the conference hall ("espace congrès") under the staff restaurant.
 
You can give blood if:

  • you are between 18 and 70 years of age

  • you weigh at least 50kg

 
Anybody can give blood subject to certain conditions and during the prior confidential medical appointment.
 
Proof of ID is requested for first-time donors. You are recommended not to come in with an empty stomach.
 
Make it a date with the blood drive!
