FAQs

Am I eligible to donate blood?

The majority of the U.S. population is eligible to give blood, but only about 3% actually do. Find out if you're eligible.

 

Is donating blood safe?

Donating blood is safe. Sterile, disposable needles and supplies are used once and then properly disposed. You cannot contract any infectious disease by donating blood.

How long does it take to donate whole blood?

It takes about an hour from completing the health history questionnaire through the medical screening and post-donation refreshments and snacks. The donation itself only takes about 10 minutes.
