Bloodworks NW will be in Gould Court to collect blood for PNW patients!
Join us on Wednesday, January 21st, where we will be hosting our annual Blood Drive! As an added bonus, all donors who give in January can enter to win a 7-night Alaska cruise.
It takes 1,000 volunteer blood donors each day to maintain a safe and reliable blood supply for patients in the Pacific Northwest needing blood for surgeries, cancer treatments, and bleeding disorders.
January is National Blood Donor Month, and it couldn’t come at a better time. The winter months are tough with holiday distractions, cold weather, and flu season mean fewer donations and a greater risk of shortages. But you can change that. Since 1970, January has been designated as a month to honor and celebrate the incredible generosity of America’s volunteer blood donors and encourage more people to donate when the need is greatest. Volunteer blood donors are the only source of lifesaving blood. One in 7 people entering a hospital will need blood and local…
