Last Saturday in Zagreb, at the premises of the “Više od Života” Association, 57 citizens participated in the 205th action organized by the Ana Rukavina Foundation to join the Registry by donating blood for tissue typing and in that way increasing the chances of saving someone’s life.
By joining the Registry, every citizen has become a potential bone marrow donor, and with this selfless act the people of Zagreb demonstrated their outstanding civic solidarity. Namely, bone marrow transplantation can treat patients suffering from acute and chronic forms of leukemia, as well as patients with severely damaged bone marrow, and the cure for this devastating disease lies within us!
We are grateful to our dear organizers, the Adriatic Union Conference of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, and especially all the young people who joined on Saturday and therefore have given the patients who are suffering a chance at life!
