World Blood Donor Day, is celebrated on the 14th of June every year. This day serves to raise awareness of the need for safe blood and blood products and to thank voluntary unpaid blood donors for their life-saving gifts of blood.
In Malta this day is celebrated as well. For these last years the President of Malta has honoured several donors who donated blood regularly by given them a recognition award.
To commemorate this day a ceremony under the patronage of The President of Malta, HE George Vella will be held on Friday, 14 June at 19:00 at the Verdala Palace, Buskett.
A concert in honour of the blood donors will be held on Saturday, 15 June at 20:00 at Villa Rundle, Victoria, Gozo.
