If you are age seventeen and up (or sixteen, with a signed parental permission form), weigh at least 110 lbs., and are in general good health, you meet the basic eligibility requirements for blood donation.
Blood donations are often used to help treat patients with cancer, victims of trauma, and patients undergoing major surgeries. Less than 10% of the population donates blood, yet more than 4.5 million patients require a blood transfusion each year. Donors like you are essential to meeting this significant need.
