C O M g i v e B l o o d T o d a y a T h u n T e r d o n h e a l T h Lives are saved every day by blood donors in our community. Giving blood is the most generous act of kindness that one human being can do for another. When you give blood, you save lives. You never know when you, or when someone you love may need it. Blood is used for accident victims, newborn babies and their mothers who need a transfusion, people undergoing surgery, patients receiving treatment for cancer and other diseases. Donating regularly can help ensure that our community is never short on blood. Can I donate blood? to be eligible to donate blood, a person must be at least 17 years of age, be in good health, weigh at least 110 pounds, have not donated in the past eight weeks, and is not currently taking antibiotics or insulin (only if of a "bovine" nature). Please note: Our 17-year-old donors must weigh at least 130 pounds. Call: 908.788.6405 to schedule an appointment.
