January-National Blood Donor Month


January is National Blood Donor Month. Help increase awareness of blood donation by encouraging both first-time and regular donors to make a difference within their communities through scheduling an appointment to give blood in January, and regularly thereafter. Remember, just one pint of blood can help save up to three lives.
