This May, We're Proud to Support & Empower Women
For every blood donation made in our donor centers May 1-7, we will make a monetary donation to a select local organization that supports & empowers women up to $10,000.
September Rush in to Donate Sweepstakes
- Kristin C. – Plainfield, IL
"I donate because I want to make sure that people who need blood transfusions have access to it. I have the rarest blood type, so I like to think about if I were ever to need a blood transfusion, someone would be kind enough to donate. I’ve also donated plasma and platelets because I know they are important to people with certain health issues." - Russell D. – Zionsville, IN "I donate blood because it is quick and easy, and it saves people’s lives."
- Kenneth S. – Saint Helen, MI "I donate blood because I feel it’s the least I can do to help other people. I feel bad for anyone that needs help and blood can help people in need."
- Stacie R. – Leesburg, OH "I donate to save lives and provide critical resources for medical treatments, surgeries, and emergencies for those in need."
- Jennifer P. – Cudahy, WI "I donate blood because I love to help people. Another reason is that I have B- blood and it’s one of the rarest types that is often needed. As a breast cancer survivor who has gone through many surgeries, having blood in case of an emergency is really important."
August Home Entertainment Sweepstakes
- James C. – Indianapolis, IN
"Donating platelets is a way to help people in a tough spot. I like to think I’m helping make the world a better place, one donation at a time." - Allison W. – Galloway, OH
"I donate because it’s easy, fast, and convenient to do. I also have one of the more rare blood types. There is only about 2% of the population who have it, so I want to make sure that those people who need it have it available. I like knowing that my donations have benefitted others." - John B. – Saint Charles, IL
"I have donated blood off and on for years throughout my life. I got back into the habit because my son’s friend was diagnosed with leukemia just after graduating high school. I heard he needed blood transfusions as part of his treatment. So I signed up for a local blood drive in my neighborhood. It was a chance to be a hero to someone, even if in just a minor way, and seemed like a pretty good reason to me."
A Year of Streaming Sweepstakes
- Rebecca C. - Elgin, IL
"I donate because it's an easy way to care for others. Being a universal and neonatal donor, I love knowing that my blood will quickly be used to help those who need it most!" - Kenneth W. - Westerville, OH
"I give blood for many reasons, but one is the hope to help save another person."

Congratulations to our winners of the Ride to Save Lives Sweepstakes.
Brian G. - Mayfield, WI
"I choose to donate blood because as a living kidney donor I want to continue to help other people as long as I can."
Kimberly B. - Saginaw, WI
"I donate blood because it is a simple thing I can do to help save lives. The fact that I have O Negative blood makes it even more special knowing I can make a difference for ANYONE! I like to do the things that may seem small, but have a big impact on someone else's life."
