Change the Future This Holiday Season

Share
Keep the spirit of the holidays in your heart...and in your veins.

This holiday season, your gift of blood could be the greatest act of generosity of all. Our Blood Institute invites you to keep the spirit of the holidays in your heart — and in your veins — by donating blood between November 10 and December 25.

All successful donors will receive:

  • A festive, limited-edition long-sleeved T-shirt featuring Ebenezer Scrooge and the words “Don't Get Ghosted”

  • The chance to help save up to three lives with just one donation

Whether you’re visited by the Ghost of Christmas Past, Present or Future, one thing is certain — blood donations are needed every day to help local patients. Give the gift of life and secure your exclusive holiday T-shirt, available only while supplies last, through December 25!

About the Shirt

    Change the future this holiday season by donating blood. Donors will receive a limited-edition, long-sleeved T-shirt inspired by A Christmas Carol.

    “Just like Scrooge learned from the Spirits of Christmas, this campaign reminds us that generosity can change the future,” said Dr. John Armitage, president and CEO of Our Blood Institute. “One blood donation has the power to bring hope and healing to patients in need this holiday season.”
