World Blood Donor Day 2010 - New Blood for Life

World Blood Donor Day is an international event that the NZ Blood Service is celebrating across the country on Monday 14 June. It is an opportunity to thank life-saving blood donors, but also an important chance to encourage more people to become donors. This year’s theme is New Blood for Life, reflecting the need for more new donors to come forward and be regular donors throughout their life. We are targeting 18-30 year olds (‘Gen Y’) in particular.

A new competition gives North Harbour Rugby Clubs the chance to show who gets their supporters’ blood rushing the most.
