“Summer is here and while the temperature is rising, unfortunately, blood donations often drop,” says Chris Sorensen, Director of Community Relations and Development for the Blood Center. “People are spending more time outside and it seems everyone is “on the go,” or traveling. Because of this, emergency room usage increases. With this in mind, we need our regular donors, and new ones, to please give the “gift of life” as often as they can this summer; beginning this month.”

Blood donation takes less than one hour to complete. Donors must be in good general health, weigh a minimum of 110 pounds and be at least 17 years old (16 years old with written parental consent). Senior citizens are encouraged to donate, as there is no upper age limit. Donors should eat a good meal and drink plenty of water within 4 hours prior to their donation. Donors can give blood every eight weeks. Photo ID and Social Security Number are required at donor registration.

The Central California Blood Center is the sole provider of blood and blood products for the 31 hospitals in Fresno, Tulare, Madera, Kings and Mariposa Counties and must collect between 5,000 to 6,000 pints of blood a month to meet the needs of our Valley community.
