About Donating Blood

Please Give the Gift of Life

DID YOU KNOW…

One pint of blood can save up to 3 lives because blood can be divided into different components.

You must be between the ages of 16 and 76 to donate blood (16 year olds need parental permission. Age 76 and over need doctor’s note).

You must weigh at least 110 lbs. to donate.

It is perfectly safe to donate blood every 56 days.

Bring your blood donor card if available

You will need identification with photo or signature.

Please do not donate if have had a tattoo within the past 12 months

Eat well and drink plenty of fluids before donating.

We need every donor!
