The team at Primary Health Care Center No. 16 in Odesa showcases their unity and proactive engagement in noble causes amid the war.

On December 17, with the support of the Odesa City Council's Department of Health, the thirteenth joint blood donation event was held as part of the "Donor Odesa" project.

At the initiative of the center's director, Hanna Pavleha, a group of regular donors has formed within the team, eager to assist our defenders and anyone in need of blood transfusions.

Seventeen staff members from PHC No. 16 participated in the blood donation. One donation can save up to three lives.

The demand for donor blood has remained very high since the onset of the war. Thanks to the "Donor Odesa" project, over 14,000 blood donations have been conducted, saving thousands of lives of Ukrainian defenders and civilians.

With the support of the City Department of Information and Digital Solutions, a continuous information campaign is ongoing to promote donation and inform about current blood needs through the Telegram channel "Odesa.Official", the mobile app MISTO, and other city media resources.
