A group of supporter members of the Gozitan Inter-Club, led by President Joe Bajada and Secretary Alvin Grech, have donated blood at the Xewkija Clinic, bringing to an end their activities organised on the occasion of winning the 19th Italian title.

Joe Bajada remarked that “this is the true essence of the celebratory activities by coming to donate blood so that we can demonstrate our support to this much needed service, as well as show our love to those in need of a transfusion.”

He also called on fans to encourage each other to donate blood, some maybe for the first time, so that there is enough supply for emergency use and for operations to be able to continue in hospitals.Bajada also welcomed club member David Zammit, who had donated blood for the first time.

Joe Bajada, while thanking his colleagues who, despite the pandemic overcame fear and came forward to donate blood and support thousands of those in need, also thanked those nurses and workers in the health sector who work tirelessly for the benefit of the blood donation service.

As part of this donation, Joe Bajada presented a club banner to Alexander Lautier, Acting Manager of Blood Donation Services, who in turn expressed his appreciation for this noble gesture, saying that it bodes well for society, because despite the difficulties that Covid-19 has brought, life must still go on.

Meanwhile, Inter Supporters Club Gozo is urging more fans to follow on all social media for information on opportunities to donate blood on the island.
