Give Blood
America needs a safe and secure blood supply. It's critical to public health. In times of crises, the American Red Cross and America's Blood Centers can quickly ship blood from one area of the country to another — wherever it's needed most. But regular donations of blood are essential to ensure that all needs are met, all of the time.
Every two seconds someone in America needs a blood transfusion — cancer patients, accident victims, premature infants, people with chronic diseases. Blood donation means so much to individuals struggling to survive their own personal crisis, and it's something you can do to make a difference.
Giving blood doesn't take much time, and each donation has the power to save as many as three lives. Because whole blood has a shelf life of only 42 days, it's important to be a regular and frequent donor.
