FACT: More than 100,000 individuals in the U.S. suffer from sickle cell disease – an enduring and often invisible condition. The disease disproportionately affects individuals of African descent, many of whom rely on routine blood transfusions as an essential treatment to prevent life-threatening complications.
FACT: Antigens are a substance on red blood cells that help determine blood type. There are more than 600 known antigens, and some are unique to specific racial and ethnic groups.
FACT: Every two seconds someone needs blood. Without your support and that of other volunteer blood donors, this lifesaving gift would not be available.
Donating blood takes about one hour, including a mini-physical and health interview. The actual donation time is typically only 10-15 minutes. After testing and processing, your donation is ready to ship to hospitals to help save lives in our community.
