The two dates are set aside for this incredibly important act.
Just a few minutes of your time could save a life. 5,000 blood donations are needed every year in the Principality… And so, the Princess Grace Hospital (CHPG), the Amicale des Donneurs de Sang de Monaco (Monaco blood donors’ association) and the Monaco Red Cross are organising a blood drive over two days – 23 and 24 January, from 8am to 2pm.
The CHPG will be happy to see you, with or without an appointment! A doctor will be on hand during the – completely safe – procedure. If you wish, you can sign up directly using the QR Code on the poster below:

Please note that there are a few criteria to meet in order to give your blood:
- Be aged between 18 and 70 (no new donors over 60)
- Be in good health and weigh over 50 kilos
- Don’t come on an empty stomach: have a well-balanced breakfast or lunch
- Drink regularly (water, coffee, tea, fruit juice)
- Bring proof of ID
If you are unavailable on those dates, be aware that you can give blood at the CHPG all year round, on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8 am to 2 pm and on Wednesdays from 10 am to 3 pm.
You can make an appointment by telephone on +377 97 98 98 20 or via the Monaco Santé website.
A driver is also available (by appointment) to pick you up and take you back to your place of work.
