Seventy people from throughout the Gouves Township turned up for the annual blood drive sponsored by the township and the Help at Home Organization.  Here, Doctor Emily Stavroulaki of University Hospital watches over the operation as three donors undergo the painless 15-minute procedure. They are (left to right) George Lapavitsas, Immigration Office of the Gouves Township, who is participating in his third blood donation; Petra Feldmann of Pano Gouves, donating for the first time, and Paraskevi Lambaki, a teacher at the Kokkini Grammar School, who is a four-time veteran. Of the 70 prospective donors, 35 were, after testing, selected, while the others were unable to give blood for various reasons. The Help at Home team would like to extend a big thank you to all the volunteers who came in to support this drive.
