Amazing Story

Kathryn following in her father's footsteps

received 3006716572926313
I recently lost my father and wanted to find ways to give back to the community. My father was a regular blood donor over the years. I am now on my 7th donation and I am finding the goal system very rewarding knowing that my regurlar donations of plasma and blood are saving kiwi lives.
The team at Takapuna are lovely and always make me feel comforted and safe.
I want to encourage others to kindly give up a small amount of time to make a big difference for those most in need! The snacks and coffee are also a great incentive to sit while you can quietly read a book and donate ☺️
