Memorial Blood Centers is one of the largest community-based, non-profit blood collection and distribution organizations in the United States. Donate blood and join us in saving lives!

A few weeks ago, we celebrated Labor Day with a special sweepstakes, giving away a $500 gift card every day for a week. And now, one of our donors is getting some very good news! Thank you, Tim, for showing up for patients in our community. We're so happy we got to celebrate you!

Every performance starts with one thing: showing up. For Dylan, blood donation is no different. He started at 16. Now, 114 donations later, he’s still showing up — giving whole blood, donating platelets and doing one small thing that can make a difference for someone.

For Jose, donating blood is simple -- "I'm healthy and able to give, so I do." A longtime whole blood donor, Jose rolls up his sleeve two to three times a year to help ensure lifesaving blood is there when patients need it most.

"I just want to help others by donating something my body creates naturally.” Meet Jamie, an O-negative donor doing his part to keep our blood supply strong! Car accident victims, infants, and cancer patients all rely on O-negative blood being available every day of the year.

Donating blood is a small act that can have a lifesaving impact on someone right here in your community. So if you’re looking for a way to do some good, roll up your sleeve. Give blood. Give back. Make a difference. ❤️🩸

Meet best friends and lifesavers Debbie, Lisa, and Kate! Every 56 days, these three turn donating blood into their version of a girls’ day out. When asked why they donate together, Kate put it best: “We're here for the cookies!” 🍪

Hallie made her very first blood donation a few weeks ago during our Labor Day Sweepstakes and just found out she was one of our lucky $500 gift card winners! Today, Hallie’s husband stopped by to donate, too, so we got the chance to give Hallie her gift card in person!

Kyra chose to donate in honor of her husband's uncle, a regular blood donor who recently passed away. By rolling up her sleeve, she paid tribute to his legacy of generosity and helped continue the lifesaving impact he believed in. Thank you, Kyra, for honoring his memory ❤️

"I got a phone call saying you needed blood, so I made an appointment." ❤️🩸 It wasn't until we talked with him a little more that we realized just how humble he was being. Robert is a lifelong blood and platelet donor, and today marked his 152nd lifetime donation!
