"Telling others about something I really support, that gives energy."

Jos is one of our faithful volunteers. For example, he regularly gives tours of the Mechelen donor center. "I have always been interested in blood and the chemical and medical knowledge around it. Moreover, I regularly donate blood and plasma myself, so I also know what I'm talking about."
