Holiday Blood Donors Receive While They Give

OneBlood has announced a giveaway promotion.

While it’s better to give than receive, blood donors get to do both this holiday season.

OneBlood, the blood bank for the entire region, has announced a special promotion for the holidays. Donors who give between Dec. 20-31 at any OneBlood Donor Center will receive a free long-sleeve holiday T-shirt and a $10 eCard gift voucher.

All donors also receive a wellness checkup that includes iron count, cholesterol screening, pulse and blood pressure. Eligible donors are generally healthy people age 16 and up who weigh at least 110 pounds.
