blood donations
Given for transfusions
Blood donations are voluntary contributions of blood or blood components for medical use.
Donors give blood at hospitals, clinics, or mobile collection sites, where it's processed and stored for transfusions, surgeries, or emergencies.
The Red Cross is hosting a blood drive next week.
Regular donors may give every few months, depending on the type of donation.
