HOPE IS IN OUR BLOOD.
At a time when the coronavirus has claimed so much, it’s easy to feel powerless. You have proven that we are not.

Our CEO Curt Bailey said “our blood supply is at risk of collapse” in early March due to the effects of Covid-19 on blood collection. We feel that what happened next is the greatest untold story of heroism in our time. Community partners – sports teams, businesses, churches and more – offered space for new Pop-Up Donor Centers throughout our region. Over 50,000 donors gave blood. And the pandemic didn’t keep even one patient from getting the blood they needed. Faced with the worst, we became our best, and there are people alive today because we did this, together.
Thank you.
