<div>On <strong>March 16</strong>, <strong>2025</strong>, Sebastian Van Wijmeersch, a passionate runner from Ghent living in Prague, ran the <a href="https://www.zurichmaratobarcelona.es/en/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>Barcelona Marathon</strong></a> to raise awareness and funds for <a href="https://impactobolivia.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>Impacto Bolivia</strong></a>, a nonprofit foundation tackling the urgent need for safe and reliable blood donations in Bolivia.
</div>

<div><br />
</div>
<div>This cause is deeply personal to Sebastian, as Impacto Bolivia was founded by his close friend of 12 years, Rian Hoorelbeke. With the generous sponsorship of <a href="https://www.moonland.be/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>Moonland</strong></a>, a data consulting startup, this campaign aims to transform blood donation culture in Bolivia.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>The Project: Digitalization &amp; Education</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In Bolivia, blood shortages and reliance on replacement donations put lives at risk. Impacto Bolivia’s twofold approach addresses this challenge:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li><strong>Digitalization:</strong> A cloud-based system to track and manage voluntary donors, ensuring a steady, safe blood supply.
</li>
<li><strong>Education:</strong> School programs to inspire young people to become lifelong donors, fostering a culture of voluntary blood donation.
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />

<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>How You Can Help</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li><strong>Donate:</strong> Every contribution brings us closer to saving lives.
</li>
<li><strong>Share:</strong> Spread the word to amplify our impact.
</li>
<li><strong>Follow along:</strong> I’ll share my live tracking code during the run and post highlights on this page. Join me on this journey!
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Let’s celebrate Sebastian’s marathon by contributing to this vital cause. Together, we can save lives and create lasting change in Bolivia!
