Donate Today with Bloodworks Northwest
Mother’s Day
Expectant mothers need blood for a safe delivery. Every 9 minutes in the U.S., a woman is at risk of life-threatening bleeding complications during childbirth. Up to 90% of these cases are preventable, but they are on the rise in the U.S., nearly tripling in the last decade. By donating blood, you can help provide a new parent with effective, timely care throughout pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum.
Memorial Day / Summer Blood Shortages
Memorial Day Weekend kicks off the start of summer fun and blood shortages in the Pacific Northwest. Vacation travel, outdoor activities, and increased blood usage in local emergency rooms impact everyone. As the weather gets nicer, fewer people are making time to donate blood. At the same time, our hospitals are seeing an upturn in accidents and injuries that require lifesaving transfusions. Make an extra effort to give blood this month, and invite a friend or two to join you, so we’re always ready with a safe and reliable blood supply to meet the healthcare needs of our community. Every pint makes a difference.
The Team Needs You
Every single day, it takes 1,000 blood donors to save lives in hospitals right here in the Pacific Northwest. That’s 1,000 people stepping up, rolling up their sleeves, and making a real difference.
