Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood—whether it's a child in the ICU or a mother battling leukemia. If you're apprehensive about needles, rest assured that most donors describe the sensation as a mild, split-second pinch. The entire donation process is quick, safe, and leaves you with the incredible feeling of potentially saving up to three lives.

When you donate blood with Vitalant at Central Blood Bank, you are making a significant impact on the health and well-being of your community and beyond. Our mission extends beyond just collecting blood; we support hospital patients through various initiatives and provide specialized services that are crucial to advancing transfusion medicine.

For those who might be unable to donate blood, the Vitalant Foundation offers alternative ways to contribute to this critical healthcare need through financial donations. Your support directly impacts the lives of patients who depend on these life-saving resources.

To make the process even more convenient, the Vitalant app allows you to schedule and manage appointments, access your donor ID, and check your health history—all from your mobile device. You don’t need to know your blood type to donate; we’ll inform you of your blood type and other important health information after your first donation.
