The red carpet was out to welcome Baudoin Poivre, Wednesday March 15. He came to give a last and 693rd blood donation, which makes him the greatest honor in the region. The final meeting was lived in a certain emotion. “A little disappointed, a little nostalgic, I would have liked to be able to continue but hey, there has to be a limit”he confides. Regrets but with a good record and anecdotes to tell like the ten times he had to be stung in both arms.
A pride for the center and its children

Baudoin Poivre is a source of pride for his children who are now taking over.
