Ogliastra confirms its position as a land of solidarity: 2025 closes with a new record for the ASL Transfusion Center, collecting 2,732 blood bags . This milestone leaves behind the decline of 2024 (2,541 bags) and surpasses the result achieved in 2023, when 2,728 bags were collected. The ASL Ogliastra 's commitment to solidarity is also reflected in its ability to meet Sardinian needs: the shipment of 604 bags to other parts of the island testifies to the efficiency of an integrated and increasingly cohesive regional transfusion network.
A success born from the synergy between institutions and the local community: the generosity of Ogliastra's citizens and the commitment of the local Avis (Italian Blood Transfusion Associations) were professionally coordinated by the Ogliastra Local Health Authority's Transfusion Center. "We are delighted to have reached this milestone," emphasizes the Center's director, Giusy Cabiddu . "Over time, we have built a solidarity collection network in the area, thanks to collaboration with schools, law enforcement, and sports associations. I want to emphasize the significant contribution of the younger generations."
Among the factors that contributed to the 2025 success were the decision to bring the donation to the heart of local festivals and the presence of the bloodmobile at major sporting events , such as the "Rally Terra Sarda" last October, which allowed for the collection of 40 blood bags . The data consolidates Ogliastra as a model of self-sufficiency. Despite the growing demand for blood, the region has not only met its own needs but has also supported other companies.
