Blood Donation at ikubINFO-Saving Lives TogetherAt ikubINFO, our employees are dedicated to making a difference in the lives of individuals affected by thalassemia. Twice a year, we come together to donate blood, providing a lifeline to those grappling with this condition. Our efforts are bolstered by the expertise of healthcare professionals from the National Blood Donation Centre. In Albania, there is a overwhelming demand for approximately 30,000 units of blood, and regrettably, only a fraction of this need is met. We encourage everyone to join us in contributing to this critical cause. Together, we can help bridge the gap and ensure that those in need receive the life-saving blood transfusions they require.
