Type O Blood Donors Needed!
Stanford Blood Center officials report supplies of Type O blood and blood products are critically low. Donors are urgently needed for both O Positive and O Negative blood types. 

Blood donations tend to drop during summer months, which could further strain the already low supply. All community members are encouraged to donate and bolster supplies that serve local partner hospitals and meet the needs of local patients. A single pint of blood can save up to three lives. Make a blood donation appointment today!
