There are many ways to get involved in Blood Donation!
Types Of Blood Drives
It isn’t just blood donors who help ensure the community blood supply is strong and stable. From blood drive chairpeople to volunteers, LifeServe Blood Center relies on the generous dedication of people looking to make a difference in our neighborhood!
The strength of our community blood supply is dependent on local donors, businesses, and organizations that donate and sponsor blood drives with LifeServe Blood Center. Are you ready to take the plunge? Click here to contact us to get the ball rolling!
There’s no more rewarding community service project than a Blood Drive!
Each unit of blood donated can save up to three local lives – that’s just a single donor! Hosting a blood drive is a great way to be seen as a leader in your community, workplace, high school, college, or place of worship.
We are encouraging you to partner with LifeServe because we believe your blood should go to your hospital, to help your neighbors. Community blood centers such as LifeServe were created to service local hospitals by hosting blood drives in those communities. That means we won’t travel to a town for a blood drive unless we know your blood will go back into your community. It seems unfair to collect blood from a community if it won’t benefit them. To help keep local blood local, please consider partnering with LifeServe Blood Center. Together, we can save our neighbors.
Sioux City Police Department Crime Prevention Officer Andrew Dutler has assisted LifeServe with several blood drives, including a Blue Blood Drive and a Battle of the Badges three day blood drive.
“It’s always good to take part in a good cause and as a first responder we see almost on a daily basis the need for people to have blood at our medical facilities,” Officer Dutler explained. “Whether that be unfortunate car accidents or personal accidents with people doing projects at home, it comes up pretty frequent where people may need blood. It feels good to participate in things to generate interest in people donating blood.”
Officer Dutler encourages others to get involved in planning their own blood drives at workplaces or through community organizations.
Be a Leader in Your Community
Sponsoring a blood drive is a great way to be seen as a leader in your community, place of business or place of worship. Organizing a blood drive shows the pride and commitment you have to community service. Take some time to educate your colleagues, friends, and neighbors about the importance of the volunteer blood donation program and the positive impact donating blood can have on others.
LifeServe Blood Center offers a variety of options for hosting and sponsoring blood drives. A LifeServe Representative can explain the following options in detail and will work with you to find the best possible location for your blood drive.
