What's an HOUR worth to you?
Check out our Top 10 Reasons to donate!

Strangely, it takes just as long (or just as little) to help save a life. In just about an hour, you can help make the difference between life and death for someone. So, they too can enjoy another Friday night out, or another round of The Sims™.

Giving the gift of blood is a simple way to make a big difference. To be eligible you must:

  • Be age 17 or older *
  • Weigh at least 110 pounds
  • Be in good health
* Some states allow 16-year-olds to donate with parental consent.


For more information or to schedule an appointment to give blood,
call 1-800-GIVELIFE or sign up online.

Can't give? Don't be left out!

  • Organize a blood drive - check out some cool ideas of how others are doing it
  • Recruit a blood donor - know anyone who is older than 17, weighs more than 110 pounds and is in good health?
  • Volunteer at a drive or a donor center - it's amazing how good you'll feel by making others feel good : )

Blood donors ROCK!
