World Blood Donor Day, the history and traditions of the holiday

The donor is not a profession, not a job, not a trade, but these people proud of their country, because they give other people the most valuable thing that does not work out or what technologies do not buy in a store and not to replace or anything else - their blood. It is no coincidence the name of their donor, from the Latin "donare", which means to give. Often their gift saves the life of another person.

World Blood Donor Day

Festival "World Blood Donor Day" was established by the World Health Assembly in May 2005, during the Geneva session 58. And it was initiated by four well-known international organizations that show care for the voluntary and free blood donation, calling for all the people of the world:

The World Health Organization (WHO);

The International Federation of Blood Donor Organizations;

International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent;

International Society of Blood Transfusion.

I bow to them for each life savings!

Celebrates "World Blood Donor Day" every year on June 14 because this day was born the man who won the Nobel Prize for his discovery of human blood groups - Karl Landsteiner.

Professional holiday of National Donor Day is celebrated in Russia on April 20.

Thank you to all donors

***

Congratulate bowed low,

Happy donor of all we want,

Who blood and family and loved ones

He gave a life to others,

Who could without second doubts

Help them save their lives,

Wine, strong tea and biscuits,

How to receive a salary.

And here the wine and cookies?

Really, it's nothing.

For the blood of their recovery

It is unlikely to help - no way.

The blood they have recovered,

Another can not just lose,

How bad is that people forgot,

How bad is that pours again.

Brooks blood flows on the slopes,

The war is the main vampire

Over a hundred years - a huge mass,

Two hundred - filled world.

How bad is it all alone

Hope gives us the blood and ...

What is still the one who can help

Revert to this love life.

Happy Blood Donor
