Blood is needed by someone every two seconds.
But where does this blood come from? It comes from volunteer donors
like you and me. The requirements are simple. You must be at least
17 years of age, weigh a minimum of 110 pounds, be in good general
health, and have at least 56 days between whole blood donations.
(These requirements meet state and federal regulations which ensure
the safety and health of both donors and patients.)
Regulations require all volunteer donors to
accurately provide their birth date and social security number at
the bloodmobile. Donors will be asked to provide a form of
identification, and high school students are required to provide a
picture I.D. for proof of age.
You can be a HERO. It only takes about an hour
for the entire donation process, and your one donation may go to as
many as four different people. Please give the gift of life soon.
Click on the donation locations link above to find a bloodmobile
near you.
Citizens of Mower County donated a total of
3,593 units of blood. We commend the citizens for their generosity.
One does not often think of donating until confronted with the
situation when a family member is in need. It is at this time, we
take that moment to say thank you for someone taking the time to
donate the "gift of life".
