Fun fact

A former student of Johan Cruyff Academy, Ziggy Tabacznik, and his colleague Kevin Loos approached Riot Games, one of the world’s largest esports companies, to launch a campaign in League of Legends (Riot Games’ largest game to date with millions of concurrent players around the world) to promote blood donation. The objective was to raise awareness among the youth about the importance of donating blood. During the World Championships for LoL, when the players got their ‘first blood’ a banner appeared with the slogan ‘A first blood could save lives’.
