A donor story competition announced at the Novosibirsk Blood Center

Donors in Novosibirsk are invited to tell their stories and receive a prize. The organizers of the "I am a donor" competition hope that these stories will interest those who have not donated blood yet, and will attract many young and healthy people to the donor movement.

Participants in the “I am a donor” publication competition are invited to tell how they started donating blood and what prompted them to do it regularly. All contestants will receive diplomas. And the authors of the ten stories that have collected the largest number of "likes" will receive prizes - bags and sweatshirts. The publications will be included in the electronic journal about honorary donors of Novosibirsk.

“There are many reasons to become a donor, and each donor has its own story. Someone came to the blood center because they were curious about how they donate blood; another had trouble with a loved one and came to share blood, the third just saw an ad that blood was needed and decided to help. We would be very happy if each of you shared his story - why he became a blood donor. And, many who have not yet become a donor, after reading, might change their mind about it. We hope that stories will surprise you with their diversity and will also attract many young, healthy donors to the donor movement” - the message says.

Stories are accepted until October 10 at the email address NRabchikova@admnsk.ru or at the link https://m.vk.com/topic-985272_41044394. Also, the organizers ask you to add your stories with the hashtags #донорэтозвучитгордо, #донорновосибирск, #ядонор, #донор. The authors of the ten best stories will be awarded on December 10th.
