For patients in need, donated blood can change everything. Blood products are used to help people – our friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers – as they treat cancer, chronic diseases, and traumatic injuries. And they are only possible with the help of volunteer blood donors.
Presenting donors will receive a voucher to redeem a $10 gift card to Amazon, Walmart, Target, Starbucks, Lowe’s, Home Depot, or Subway AND a tree planted in their name to help support reforestation efforts.
