NZ Blood WBD 2011 330
I was 17 when I first donated, and I was the first and only out of my school to do so that year. I was pretty excited, and nervous too. Three years later and I'm still going, only now I am a regular plasma donor and soon to be (on Monday 20th July) a new platelet donor! Knowing I am helping people is something that makes me feel proud of myself. I'd always recommend it to others to do. Give blood!
