"GIVE US BLOOD TODAY, YOU'LL GET IT WHEN YOU NEED IT". Under this slogan the blood transfusion service gathers the blood donors offering, in return for the given blood the security that, any moment and in required quantities, the blood will be provided for every donor i.e. every member of any collective that acts on the request and "deposits" blood in so called blood banks", at least twice a year. Agitation among the prospective blood donors is completely confided to prominent people, social and medical workers, who do it permanently, and not from time to time, and who, if possible, are also blood donors, and owing to their own example, more convincing. The obligations between the blood transfusion service and "the investors" are regulated by oral agreement. It is noticed that the mutual moral obligation has more positive influence on the fulfillment of obligation than the administrative measure--a contract. According to this experience, individual work, a personal contact with prospective blood donors, and the feeling of personal security that is offered to them give the best results in motivating the people to become blood donors.
