Blood donation day at the Technology Park

Bocholt, July 4, 2025

The Bocholt-based companies Lebbing automation & drives GmbH and TIS Technische Informationssysteme GmbH have joined forces to organize a blood donation day for the Bocholt Technology Park.

On July 1, a blood donation day took place at the Bocholt Technology Park. The event was organized by the companies Lebbing automation & drives GmbH and TIS Technische Informationssysteme GmbH. This was the second time the blood donation campaign had been held. What made it special was that all companies in the industrial park were invited to participate so that as many people as possible could take part. This time, the campaign was expanded to include the opportunity to register as a stem cell donor and obtain organ donor cards.

Both companies are delighted that the campaign was so well received, despite the high temperatures. A total of 37 blood donors turned up, 33 of whom were ultimately able to donate. This included eleven first-time donors, which shows that the campaign generated positive attention and encouraged new people to donate. Frank Holtwick, Operations Manager at Lebbing GmbH, is delighted: "As a long-time blood donor, it fills me with great joy and pride to celebrate the success of 37 dedicated donors at the Technology Park today. I am particularly moved by the fact that this time there was also a call to register as a stem cell donor – a step that can save lives. In my own family, we have experienced first-hand how important regular blood donations are. I am all the more grateful to everyone involved in making this day possible.“ ”Since the blood donation day was so well received, we have already decided to repeat the campaign next year. We will therefore start planning the next event soon," adds Fabian Bielefeld, Managing Director of TIS GmbH.
In addition to Lebbing GmbH and TIS GmbH, the DRK team also drew a positive conclusion.
