360 donations
45+ gallons donated
Countless lives impacted ❤️

Over the past 10 years, Raymond has dedicated himself to helping patients in need through both platelet and whole blood donations — an incredible milestone that reflects years of generosity and commitment to others.

But what makes Raymond even more special is the kindness he brings beyond his donations. Every time he comes in to donate, he also brings treats for the staff as his way of saying thank you.

When asked what inspired him to start donating, Raymond shared that both his father and his fiancé played a role in encouraging him to begin giving blood. To Raymond, donating is all about “paying it forward.”

And for anyone considering becoming a donor, he offers this advice, “It is a very rewarding thing to do for others in need.”

Raymond, thank you for your compassion, generosity, and unwavering support of this lifesaving mission. We are so grateful for you!

As a team member, Karole is deeply aware of the constant need for blood in our community. So when she heard there was a blood emergency, she called in the infantry — literally!

Karole recruited her retired Army dad, Bruce, to step up and help save lives through blood donation. His willingness to serve didn’t end with his military career.

Thank you, Bruce, for your decades of service to our country and your continued service to our community. Heroes like you make a lifesaving difference every day. ❤️ 🤍 💙

Happy Memorial Day! 💙

As we gather with family and friends this holiday weekend, we’re reminded of the importance of community, compassion, and service to others. The need for blood donations doesn’t take a holiday. Hospital patients still rely on lifesaving blood every day for emergencies, surgeries, cancer treatments, and more.

Come in to donate before May 27, and you'll go home with a packable picnic blanket to enjoy all summer long.

Thank you to everyone who gives — today and every day.

Thirteen-year-old Liam is a brain tumor fighter, and thanks to blood donors, he was able to get back to doing what he loves ❤️

Recently, Liam wasn’t feeling like himself. He was low on energy, pale, achy, and missing school. After routine bloodwork showed his platelet and hemoglobin counts were low, he spent two afternoons at Children's Nebraska receiving platelet and blood transfusions.

Just one day later, Liam was back under the Friday night lights, joining the high school marching band.

“We are so grateful to all who regularly give blood,” shared Liam's mom, Kati.

Stories like Liam’s are a powerful reminder that blood donation helps patients far beyond the walls of a hospital. It helps kids get back to school, back to activities they love, and back to being kids.

Congratulations to Omaha Certified Transmission for an incredibly successful first blood drive! ❤️

Throughout the day, we welcomed 28 first-time donors to the NCBB family and collected more than 30 units of blood -- enough to save up to 96 lives in our community.

Omaha Certified Transmission’s strong commitment to community involvement was evident throughout the entire event, and we are grateful for their partnership and enthusiasm in supporting local patients in need.

Thank you to every donor, volunteer, and team member who helped make this first drive such a success!

As the school year comes to a close, we're celebrating young donors making a powerful difference!

High school students play a vital role in keeping our blood supply strong. One simple donation can help save lives, and often sparks a lifelong commitment to helping others.

Beyond the impact on patients, donating also gives students a chance to come together, support their community, and see firsthand how their actions make a real difference. If you’re eligible, consider donating at a center over the summer. It’s a small act that can have a lifelong impact. ❤️

This EMS Week, we’re proud to recognize the incredible partnership helping bring lifesaving blood directly to patients in emergency situations 🚑❤️

On June 30, 2025, we launched an initiative in partnership with the Omaha Fire Department and Nebraska Medicine to carry whole blood on medic units throughout the community.

In the eleven months since this program began, EMS crews have transfused 28 units of whole blood to 28 patients — including both trauma patients and mothers experiencing severe blood loss after childbirth.

EMS Chief Andy Bierbrauer emphasized that blood is “a rare and precious commodity,” and shared how grateful their teams are for the generosity of blood donors who make this program possible.

“When donors give blood, they’re giving their time and helping positively impact the community,” he shared.

Thank you to our EMS partners for their dedication to patient care, and thank you to every blood donor whose generosity helps save lives far beyond the hospital walls.

Memorial Day weekend is almost here — and blood donations are down nearly 15% across our region.

Hospitals rely on donors every day, especially as summer trauma cases increase, and just one donation can help save multiple lives.

Come to donate by May 27 and receive a free packable picnic blanket, just in time for summer ➡️ https://bit.ly/4wGaecj
