Are you looking for the perfect gift for your Valentine?

Do you have an hour to spare?

Would you like to Save a Life?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then please consider donating blood in honor of Valentine’s Day? There is no better way to express love to  your Valentine than giving the gift of life.

There are four types of transfusable products that can be derived from blood: red cells, platelets, plasma and cryoprecipitate. Typically, two or three of these are produced from a pint of donated whole blood – therefore each donation can help save up to three lives.
