It was time to donate blood again at my workplace Blood Assurance in Chattanooga, TN. This is something I enjoy doing as a part of my work. If you can donate blood, donate where you are.
Donation Day At Blood Assurance

World Blood Donor Day, June 14th
World Blood Donor Day was established in 2004 by several organizations including the World Health Organization in order to raise awareness of the need for safe blood and blood products, and to thank blood donors for their voluntary, life-saving gifts of blood. Every single blood or plasma donation is a precious lifesaving gift, and regular donation is the key to building a safe and sustainable supply. As a person who recruits donors for Blood Assurance, a regional blood bank serving Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and Kentucky, it’s important to donate every 56 days.
Blood Donation Friday
It’s been awhile since my last blood donation. So, since I’m back in the old work neighborhood I thought I would go ahead and make a blood donation today. It’s not as convenient to do it in the new work neighborhood. Donate blood and save lives.
Holiday Blood Donation
I made my last blood donation for 2023 in advance of the holidays. This time of year blood donors are needed to help keep a good inventory available for those in need and for emergencies. As a blood bank worker I’m always glad to help.
You even get a donor gift and snacks for donating. That’s a cool part of the experience.
Another Blood Donation Day At Work
I work at a blood bank and try to donate on time every 56 days, which is when you are allowed to donate whole blood. Today was my day to give and I am always glad to do so. It’s important to help others this way. No matter what you can find your own ways to help others mine is to save 3 lives through blood donation.
