Give Blood, Not Just in Your Dreams!
Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time to roll up those sleeves and do something splendid—not your average Saturday, I assure you! The Red Cross, alongside its trusty sidekick, the Lomas subsidiary, is spearheading its second blood donation campaign of the year!
Now, picture this: on Saturday the 26th, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., at Sáenz 749, we’ll have the Evita de Lanús Hospital’s finest phlebotomy ninjas swooping in to ensure you’re not only donating blood but potentially saving lives. And you thought donating was as easy as ordering takeout—hold the anchovies!
Victoria Civeira, the general coordinator of our ambitious Lomas branch, said with a sparkle in her eye, “The professionals from the Evita Hospital are going to visit our branch to perform the extractions of the neighbors who come to donate.” Extractions? Sounds like a medical-themed heist movie where the prize is health itself!
And just a friendly reminder: the first donation this year was back on June 8, coinciding beautifully with the globally celebrated Blood Donor Day on June 14. They’re clearly not messing around—June and October are the months to flex those empathy muscles and feel like an absolute legend!

Reserve a spot at 1158925328 from Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. This is not your average chat; it’s a direct line to the most noble of causes!
And let’s not forget: while it’s best to make an appointment, their doors won’t be slammed in the face of spontaneity. That’s right! Pop along on the day, and they’ll do their best to accommodate you. Who knew blood donation could be a spontaneous adventure? One minute you’re at home in your pajamas, and the next, you’re playing hero!
The extraction specialists from Evita de Lanús Hospital have teamed up with the Lomas Red Cross for these ongoing campaigns—hopefully, they have a solid coffee supply for those Saturday shenanigans. And they’re not just about blood; they’re offering community trainings, workshops—you name it! It’s like a Swiss Army knife of civic engagement!
