🚨 More than 1,000 blood donations have gone uncollected this January due to snowstorms and freezing temperatures shutting down donation centers and canceling drives. But patients’ needs for blood don’t take a snow day. ❄️

💪 That’s where you come in! If you're healthy and can safely travel to donate, your contribution is vital in helping prevent blood shortages. With many donors staying home due to severe weather and illness, we need YOU to and ensure hospitals have the blood they need to save lives.

"Why do I donate? I donate because I can. I know I may be helping to save the lives of people I'll never meet, and they'll never know who I am. It makes me feel good to know there are people out there living to see another day because I was willing to give. It's easy, relatively fast, the people are nice, it costs me nothing and I get snacks. Why wouldn't I donate?"

Saving lives starts with one choice. For Eddi, that choice turned into decades of giving hope to others.

Eddi began donating blood in 1979 after hearing about a patient in need of O- blood. Years later, she needed a transfusion herself after a tumor diagnosis. Then, a leukemia misdiagnosis left her unable to donate for 9 months. Her first question to doctors? “When can I donate again?”

When Eddi finally returned to donating, she cried with relief. “If people don’t donate, little ones like my granddaughter wouldn’t make it,” she said.

Howard discovered lifesaving insights twice through Vitalant's free pre-donation health check. 🚨🌡️

An elevated pulse led to heart bypass surgery, and low iron levels revealed early-stage colon cancer. Now back to donating, Howard urges everyone to join him in saving lives and keeping track of their health in the process. ❤️💪

"You don’t need special skills or training," he shared. "Roll up your sleeve and give a pint of yourself."

Robert’s life took an unexpected turn when he was diagnosed with a rare blood cancer, Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS). His condition meant his body couldn’t produce healthy blood cells, and he needed regular transfusions to survive.

At one point, Robert relied on multiple transfusions each week, often traveling far to receive them. “I know those blood transfusions kept me breathing,” he shared. Even through chemotherapy, the generosity of blood donors gave him the strength to keep fighting.❤️💪
