You're Someone's Type Blood Drive - West Valley
Community Outreach
About this Event
We all have a resource within us that has the power to transform another life.
Make a significant impact on someone's life by donating blood. A, B, AB, and O; positive or negative, you're someone's type and can make a difference.Post-pandemic, our nation continues to experience a critical blood shortage as usage continues to outpace donations. As a result, 700 donors are needed every day to meet the blood transfusion requirements of our Arizona hospital patients. Our hospital patients need you! Please schedule your life-saving donation. Those who complete their donation on May 31, will received a Feeling Grooving t-shirt from Vitalant, while supplies last.
"Donating blood is one of the easiest ways to give back to your community. Your blood donation offers second chances and many tomorrows to those who depend on it." ~ Vitalant
WeSERV partnered with Vitalant to roll out our You're Somebody's Type Blood Drive to help shrink the ever-growing need for blood. Schedule your time before they fill up, and head inside to our classrooms when you arrive for your appointment.

A Message From Vitalant
Individuals who are not feeling well and healthy are excluded from donating. Early on in the process, each donor receives a mini-physical that includes taking the donor’s temperature and asking about any symptom they might be experiencing. If there is any concern about the donor’s health, we defer them immediately. ***
Vitalant, one of the nation’s oldest and largest nonprofit community blood service providers, supplies comprehensive transfusion medicine services to nearly 1,000 hospitals and health care partners for patients in need across 40 states. learn more
