Red Week – Give the Gift of Life
The most important gift of the year won’t be found in a shopping cart, so forget super deals and mega discounts. They come and go, but the need for help remains constant – blood is always needed. Donate blood with a friend, and you’ll both get Storytel for 45 days for free!
Free Listening Time on Storytel for You and Your Friend
You and your friend will both receive a 45-day free trial (including 50 hours) on Storytel when you come to donate blood together during Red Week, from November 25 to November 29, 2024. Make the most important choice of the week and come donate blood with your friend. As a reward, you’ll get wonderful listening moments for over a month! ❤️
The free trial is also available to former customers who haven’t had an active subscription in the last six months (6 months).
How to Get the Red Week Benefit:
- Find your nearest donation site
- Book an appointment or stop by to ask for available donation times
- Inform a nurse that you are participating in the campaign
- The nurse gives the trial code to you
- Enjoy a shared snack time together after your donation
New blood donors are constantly needed
The goal of the “Encourage a Friend” campaign is to increase the number of new blood donors, as currently, only about 3% of Finns donate blood each year. New blood donors are continuously needed because some donors have to stop donating blood due to reasons such as illness. We need about 20,000 new blood donors annually to maintain a sufficient and diverse donor pool to meet patients’ treatment needs in Finland.
Every weekday, we need around 700 donors to ensure the availability of blood products for patient care. The steady need for blood is further emphasized by the fact that blood products do not have a long shelf life. Donated blood is vital for accident victims, premature babies, and cancer patients, for example.
Blood donation is an easy and tangible way to help others. Make the best decision of the week – buy less, help more. ❤️
