Until blood is needed for themselves or for a loved one, most people do not think about the blood supply in our community. As a result, we want to raise awareness of the "why" behind our donors and the patients we serve.
Did you know? Your story has the power to inspire others to donate blood to ensure a more stable and adequate blood supply for our community. If more people donated, or if donors donated more frequently there would be less shortages in general.
Will you share your story to inspire others to donate?
