Blood donation is a vital contribution to saving lives, particularly in cases of women with pregnancy and childbirth complications, children with severe anemia, accident victims, and surgical and cancer patients. It is essential to maintain a regular supply of blood, especially amid a critical shortage and further exacerbated during the Covid era.

Therefore, the European Chamber, in partnership with Residence G, is organizing an event to enable member company employees to donate blood, with minimal organisational constraints. This event is supported by Shenzhen Bienvenue. As the winner of the 2023 European Chamber CSR Award, Residence G has been organizing blood donor days since 2018, under the leadership of General Manager Blandine Cressard.

The blood donation will take place on September 21st, from 9:30 am to 1:00 pm, facilitated by the Shenzhen Blood Center in a hospital bus located on the left side of the Residence G Lobby entrance, between Residence G and Office Tower 2.
