Press Release March 2023

Bocholt, March 29, 2023

The Bocholt-based companies Lebbing Automation & Drives GmbH and TIS Technische Informationssysteme GmbH organized a blood donation day for the technology park.

On Monday, March 27th, 2023, a total of 42 people wanted to donate their blood in the centrally located parking lot of the Lebbing company. However, since not everyone was entitled to donate, a total of 9 liters of blood were taken from 18 persons.
The campaign was planned because of the repeated reports of a lack of blood donations. Both companies initially planned the day independently. After a first inquiry of interest, Lebbing and TIS got to know about each other's plans and decided to continue the organization together. Achieving as many donations as possible was important to both companies, which is why they involved the entire technology park.
The campaign was very well received on all occasions and the DRK also drew a positive conclusion. They are very happy about the high number of first-time donors and about the many people who have donated again after a break of several years. Markus Vinke, Managing Director of TIS GmbH, is pleased that the blood donation campaign was successful: "We started the campaign as a trainee project and we are thrilled that many neighboring companies were involved." Julia Buß, Human Resources at Lebbing Automation & Drives GmbH, agrees. "Due to the positive response and the fact that we are providing humanitarian support, we are also planning a future blood donation campaign for the entire Bocholt Technology Park."
