World Blood Donor Day 2025
Let’s Build a Healthier Future Together
From June 10th–14th, the Egi community is proud to partner with Sagicor and the Barbados Blood Collection Centre for our annual donor campaign.
Donating blood is one of the most generous and life-changing acts a person can make. A single donation can save up to three lives. Imagine the impact we can make together.
At Egi, we believe in using our collective strength not only to uplift each other, but also to give back to the communities that hold us. Giving blood is one of the simplest yet most impactful ways to do just that.
