Donor Impact Stories

Hadden Carswell
"'Thank you' is simply not enough to express my gratitude for blood donors. Without donors like you, I would not be here."

Dikari Joseph
"If someone were scared to donate blood, I would say to do it. You never know whose life you might change. You gave me a chance to continue to live life to the fullest and seize every moment. I'm grateful."

Cassidy Hall
"Strangers have given us the last two years of our daughter's life and will likely give her the rest of her life. For us, blood donors have meant one more birthday, one more Christmas, every month with our precious baby girl."
