Platelet Donation: Be the BIG DEAL
Why donate platelets? Because they’re the tiny cells that make a BIG DEAL difference. Platelets help blood clot and heal, and they’re essential for cancer patients, burn victims, transplant recipients and so many others fighting for their lives. Your donation gives them the strength to keep going..

Plasma Donation
Plasma is the liquid component of blood, which carries red blood cells and nutrients to the parts of the body that need it. Plasma is used to treat burn victims and those with trauma or clotting disorders.

Power Red Donation
A Power Red donation is similar to a whole blood donation, except a special machine is used to allow you to safely donate two units of red blood cells during one donation while returning your plasma and platelets to you.
