You can save a life during the 2024 MHSRS by donating blood! The Armed Services Blood Program needs YOU to provide lifesaving blood products to service members and their families, for deployed troops and patients in military hospitals. All blood types are invited to donate.
Every donor will receive an ASBP t-shirt as a token of our appreciation, and the first 50 donors each day will score an extra incentive!
To make the process go smoother, please book your appointment by 2300 the day before the blood drive and enjoy front-of-the-line service. Can't make an appointment? No worries, walk-ins are always welcome. Be sure to bring a photo ID.
