It's about giving back to your community

I had always wanted to give something back to my community but always thought I needed money to make a difference, until I read a story of how one man saved a child's life by simply donating blood and started to ask myself why I had never considered doing this before.

An unhealthy lifestyle had stopped me from becoming a blood donor earlier in life but in the last 3 years I have been taking steps to lead a better life for myself and my family. I didn't make this health change to donate blood but I thought "well now that I fit the criteria I am going to start to donate" and now I donate blood regularly, lead a healthy lifestyle for myself and my family and just hope that my blood donation can help others who are in need.

If you fit the criteria to donate blood and want to help others anonymously like myself, than this is a great way to give back to your community.
