About Blood Donation

Blood donors are the only source of blood for transfusion. When donating blood, people give a pint of whole blood or donate a specific blood component via an automated system. When donating whole blood, the donated unit is separated into its therapeutic components providing one unit of red blood cells and a partial dose of platelets and plasma. When donating on an automated system, a donor gives approximately the same amount of blood, but more of the component that is in highest demand depending on their donor characteristics and blood type.

Approximately 14 million units of red blood cells, 10 million platelet units and 4 million units of plasma are transfused annually in the United States.

To make a blood donation or to learn more about donating blood, please contact your local blood center. To learn more about this year's Donation Hall of Fame inductees or to submit a nomination for the 2009 Donation Hall of Fame, please visit http://www.fenwalinc.com.
