Minnesota Vikings Team With Memorial Blood Centers Again for Annual Blood Drive
Date:12/10/2009

s of more than 30 hospital partners. And making a donation is one way to give a potentially life-saving gift to friends, family, and community.

  1. All donations are processed and available for use within 24-48 hours
  2. Each unit of blood can help up to three (3) people
  3. Since blood cannot be synthetically made, there is no substitute
  4. Donating is safe, convenient, and takes only about one hour, including registration and a mini-physical.

The need for blood never takes a vacation -- even though donors sometimes do -- and shortages often occur during the winter holidays.

Donors 17 and older must be in good health and weigh at least 110 pounds; donors 16 years of age must weigh at least 130 pounds, be at least 5 feet tall, and have written parental consent. While walk-in donors are always welcome, appointments can be made in advance.
