For another year, on the eve of the Day of the Christian Family, priests and their relatives will donate blood for patients in need. The campaign will be held at the Blood Center of the Military Medical Academy in Sofia. With the blessing of Patriarch Daniil of Bulgaria, priests from the Sofia Metropolis will join the initiative "Be one of us! Donate blood - save a life!" of the medical institution.

Encouraging unpaid blood donation is one of the missions of the Military Medical Academy. It periodically organizes such campaigns to draw public attention to blood donation as an expression of solidarity.
