I give blood regularly. I just got a call that my usual donor place has moved to a church in the next town and they're giving a free pancake breakfast to all donors! Wee heeee!

My 18 year old son just gave blood for the 1st time. I try to give as often as I can.

That is wonderful of you to give blood. My Dad always gave blood. I wish I could, but can't.

Thank you to all that can give blood. I have been a recipient more times than I can count. It's because of people like you that it is possible.

It's possible for ONE donor to help THREE patients. Thank you all who donate to help others.

At this donation site, you will get a free mini-medical exam. Temp, pulse, iron checks. And a lot of questions we sure hope that you answer honestly.

I remember my husband's pale face when he got his first transfusion. As a dark Portuguese he looked tan most of the time but at this point he was pale and sickly looking. As he received the blood I could see the pink coming back into his face, it was almost unbelievable how quickly he recovered and was able to speak to me.

Thanks again.
