With a great success and the slogan “Run with ORAMA”, “ORAMA ELPIDAS” has once again participated this year to the great event of Sports, the Authentic Marathon of Athens on Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th November 2022, connecting runners all around the world.
With a group of 50 runners consisting from volunteers donors of marrow bone and compatible volunteers donors also who have already offered graft to save our fellow human beings, “ORAMA” participated to the 39th Authentic Marathon of Athens and specifically in the course of 5km giving messages of hope, offer, love and life!
We had the pleasure this year to have in our group our little friends of “ORAMA”, future volunteers donors who run with their parents wishing to spread with their own childish and tender way the messages of love, solidarity, hope and life!. Each one of their steps in the course was bringing them closer to the importance of offer which is worth to follow them when they become adults.
The Authentic Marathon of Athens is now a tradition for “ORAMA ELPIDAS” as its participation to it continues for five years and thousands of volunteers donors of marrow bone have been registered through it, out of which 2 have already been found compatible and have offered graft of hematopoietic cells to patients subject to transplantation.
It is worth to note that, the Association “ORAMA ELPIDAS”, has registered, until to date, via the Bank of volunteers’ donors of marrow bone established on 2014, to the National and World records of volunteers’ donors, more than 135.000 new volunteers’ donors of marrow bone and 240 of them have been found compatible offering a hope of life to patients of the same number.
