Save Lives by Donating Blood

Did you know that up to three lives can be saved when you donate one pint of blood?

Donating blood is a safe, simple, and satisfying experience. Your donation helps give life to the millions of Americans each year who require blood transfusions during surgery, after an accident, or because they have a disease that requires blood components. No matter what your blood type, give a pint.

But before you do, follow these simple steps:

• Hydrate the day before
• Eat salty snacks the evening before
• Get a good night’s sleep
• Eat breakfast the day of
• Hydrate just before you donate
