Every 2 seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood.
Donating Blood Benefits You
Many people ask: “How does donating blood help me?”
Every time you donate blood it’s like a complementary check-up:
- They check temperature;
- They check blood pressure;
- They check iron level;
- You can get some health-related information. For example:
- What is my iron level?
- What is the acceptable iron level range?
- Being a blood donor lifts spirits and provides positive emotional wellbeing. Knowing you are helping others, particularly in this time of great need for blood, is fulfilling. This also encourages leading a healthy lifestyle to continue ability to donate.
It’s like a mini-physical every 8 weeks!
