Amazing Story

Nick's giving back to his community

NZ Blood 300+ Donor 13.06.12 26
I am fairly new to donating blood, only 17 counts so far, it's an amazing feeling knowing that donating blood and a little bit of time can actually save a life. This is my way of giving back to the community quietly.

The feeling when NZ Blood sends you notifications on their app when your donation is actually used to save a life is one like no other feeling (imagine saving a life....) makes me proud and on top of the world!!

I am not too fond of needles but thanks to the NZ Blood staff, don't feel a thing and before you know it, you are walking out feeling proud & content with yourself.
