Want to save a Life?

You can! Donating blood is a gift to people in desperate need. Yes, you can seriously save a life with your blood! And your donation can save up to 3 lives!

Your body has about 10-12 pints of blood. When you donate they will take about 1 pint.

What you need to donate blood:

1. You must be 17 and older in most states ( may have a weight restriction too)
2. Healthy and fit
3. Have not donated blood the last 56 days

The Process of Donating Blood:

1. Eat iron rich foods

2. Go down to a donation center

3.They will ask for ID- to verify age

4. They will take you to a room or a chair to begin the donation- it takes about 8- 10 minutes

5. You are done! Many times there will be refreshments for those who have donated

6. The blood is sent to a lab for testing

7. Once approved, the blood will either go to a blood bank where it will be kept frozen until needed or it will go right away to those in need.

Thank you for your donation!
