Successful Blood Donation Drive at the Agricultural University of Athens

On Tuesday, June 24th, 2025, the blood donation drive organized by the AUA RUNNING TEAM—the running team of the Agricultural University of Athens—in collaboration with “Aghia Sophia” Children’s Hospital, was successfully completed.

The event took place at the University’s Conference Center and was part of the ongoing efforts to raise awareness among the university community and the general public about the importance of voluntary blood donation and social contribution.

Participation exceeded all expectations: dozens of students, staff members, and friends of the University came forward to donate blood, reinforcing the University’s blood bank and once again demonstrating the value of selfless giving.

Voluntary blood donation is an act of altruism and solidarity that can save lives. We encourage everyone to become regular blood donors—especially during the summer months, when blood needs are especially high. Just ten minutes of our time is enough to offer a priceless gift to society.

The AUA RUNNING TEAM warmly thanks all participants and pledges to continue organizing similar social initiatives, promoting sports as a powerful means of mobilization, solidarity, and contribution.
