The need is constant.
- Every two seconds someone in the U.S. needs blood.
- About 36,000 units of red blood cells are needed every day in the U.S.
The blood that is collected will help ensure cancer patients, trauma victims, surgery patients, and others have the blood products they need. Donors of all blood types are needed. A single blood donation may help up to three people.
