About the ImpactLife
ImpactLife is dedicated to providing lifesaving blood products and services to over 120 hospitals across Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, and Wisconsin. Formerly known as Mississippi Valley Regional Blood Center, we operate 23 donor centers and organize more than 5,000 blood drives each year. Our mission is to ensure a reliable blood supply for patients in critical need, fostering a healthier and more resilient community.
Why Donate?
Your blood donations are crucial for patients like Beckett, a young leukemia warrior who relies on regular transfusions to continue his fight, and Amy, who survived childbirth complications thanks to lifesaving blood donations. Every donation you make can be the difference between life and death for someone in need.
Special Campaign: Platelet Donors Needed
Through September 8, we are offering an e-gift card or a donation value of $70 for new platelet donors and $45 for returning donors. Platelets are vital for patients undergoing treatments like chemotherapy, which can severely impact their blood cell counts. Your donation can make a significant difference in their recovery journey.
Donor Rewards Program:
Our Donor for Life rewards program makes giving as rewarding as possible. As a rewards member, you can accumulate points that can be redeemed for fantastic gifts, shipped directly to you for free. Track your donation history, schedule appointments, and explore wellness information easily through our platform.
Diversity and Inclusion:
ImpactLife values diversity in our staff, volunteers, and donor base, enabling us to serve a wide array of communities effectively. Our Individual Donor Assessment ensures equitable eligibility standards, using gender-inclusive, behavior-based questions during pre-donation screenings.
Monthly Specials:
All donors who register to give in August can choose between an electronic gift card, a donation to Make-A-Wish® chapters in our service region, or bonus points. This month’s featured reward is a set of 3 packable grocery totes.
Convenient and Efficient:
Our EarlyQ Review streamlines your donation experience by allowing pre-registration, questionnaire review, and eligibility determination before you arrive at the donation site. This process ensures a quick and efficient donation experience.
Schedule Your Donation:
Whether you're a first-time donor or a regular, your contributions are invaluable. Less than 10% of the population donates blood, yet the need is constant. Schedule your appointment today and be a hero in someone’s story.
Testimonials:
- "Our son's cancer treatment just ended, but unfortunately his bone marrow is a bit slow producing platelets. He's needed consistent platelets every week since April 1st, during radiation. Since his platelets are low, he does have some constant bleeding going on. He's needed blood transfusions about every other week. We can't thank you enough for your donation."
- "It was only through lifesaving blood donations that I was able to hold on, to keep fighting." – Andrew O., trauma survivor
Join us at ImpactLife and make a tangible difference in the lives of those who need it most. Your blood is more than just a donation; it’s a lifeline.

Reviews of ImpactLife
"Staff were friendly and laughing with each other throughout our time here. Free snacks too! Overall will visit again to donate blood."
"Rude Staff. I'm a regular blood donor but will not be interacting with this organization again (at least at the University Avenue Urbana location) after three negative interactions. Some of the staff is nice and professional. But when others can't be bothered to answer normal questions in a way that is polite and are clearly trying to get you off the phone as soon as possible, what's the point? Administration, you need to be more careful about hiring and giving critical feedback to your staff."
"Very professional staff on-site. However, after donating blood I received multiple text messages and phone calls. When I told the lady on the phone that I would be back to donate blood when I had time and to please stop calling/texting me so much, the lady got agitated. I give A-negative blood (something I could sell) as a donation and their staff is bold enough to get agitated when I ask them to stop calling me during my work hours. Not a good look."
"I have donated here many times and the employees are always kind, helpful, and willing to answer any questions you may have about blood donation."
"I donated blood at my daughters school durning their blood drive. Everyone was so nice and professional. However, Bryan was finishing up my donation and i became very lightheaded and sweaty. He asked a coworker (Iesha) to get me a cold rag.... she was just standing there doing nothing...and after he asked she rolled her eyes and made a comment to another male employee and he looked at me. The guy taking my blood apologised for her behavior and i told him it wasnt on him. After getting home i called the 1-800 number anf left a message but no one has returned my call. Other than this it was a good experience."
