Why Blood Donations Matter
Blood donations are essential, especially for cancer patients, trauma victims and those with chronic illnesses. As we honor Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October, it’s important to remember that cancer patients often rely on platelet donations. New donors are needed every day.
