Bloodworks Northwest has reported that, due to heavy usage at area hospitals the local platelet supply has dropped 56% since Monday, June 20th. Your help is needed to bring this supply back up – and ensure the survival of trauma victims and chronically ill patients right now!
Please consider donating blood or platelets now. To make an appointment, or find out about your eligibility, call 1-800-398-7888 or visit the Bloodworks Northwest scheduling portal.
Even if you cannot give, please help spread the word about this vital need. During summer vacations, donors don’t give as regularly yet the demand often increases due to our active lives and the on-going need of friends and family suffering due to a variety of illnesses.
Thank you for sharing!
