14 de junio: Día Mundial del Donante de Sangre

On June 14th, the global community observes a significant event: the International World Blood Donor Day. These observances align with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 3, which focuses on ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being for all at all ages.

World Blood Donor Day underscores the critical need for safe blood and blood products, which are essential for healthcare systems worldwide. Voluntary, unpaid blood donations are vital for emergency care, surgical procedures, and the treatment of various medical conditions. This day emphasizes the role of regular blood donors in saving lives and improving health outcomes, directly contributing to SDG 3. Accessible and safe blood supply is indispensable for the prevention and treatment of conditions such as severe anemia, hemorrhages, and blood disorders.

As an international NGO committed to humanitarian aid and support, the Lazarus Union recognizes the importance of both these global observances. Our dedication to health and well-being is reflected in our support for initiatives that combat IUU fishing and promote sustainable practices. Moreover, we actively encourage blood donation drives and awareness campaigns, recognizing that a robust health system relies on the availability of safe blood.

The Lazarus Union’s commitment to SDG 3 is multifaceted. By engaging in and promoting activities that safeguard marine ecosystems, we help secure nutritious food sources essential for good health. Additionally, our advocacy for blood donation aligns with our mission to improve global health outcomes and save lives.

In conclusion, the observance of the International World Blood Donor Day on June 14th serves as a reminder of our shared responsibility towards a healthier and more sustainable world. The Lazarus Union stands resolute in its commitment to these causes, contributing to the realization of SDG 3 and the broader 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
