• Thanking blood donors in the world and working to raise awareness on a larger scale of the need to donate blood regularly without remuneration.
• Highlighting the need to commit to donating blood throughout the year to maintain adequate supplies and to make safe blood transfusions available to all in a timely manner.

Blood and blood products are an essential resource for the effective management of women with haemorrhage associated with pregnancy and childbirth; children with severe anemia caused by malaria and malnutrition; patients with blood and bone marrow disorders, hereditary hemoglobin disorders, and immunodeficiencies; victims of trauma, emergencies, disasters and accidents; and patients undergoing advanced medical and surgical procedures. The need for blood includes everyone, but the availability of blood to those who need it does not include everyone. Low- and middle-income countries particularly suffer from severe blood shortages.
