Give HOPE ♡ Give LIFE ♡ Give BLOOD

In loving memory of Our Precious Victoria, join us in honoring her precious life by donating blood and platelets during the entire month of August.

Your lifesaving contribution will make a significant difference in the lives of others. Not only will you be able to help save the lives of up to three people, but you will also help maintain a healthy and reliable blood supply for those who are in desperate need of blood and platelets.

Pledging your support in loving memory of Our Precious Victoria is easy.

♡Start by making an appointment to donate blood or platelets at a blood drive or donation center convenient to you.

♡ When making the appointment, let them know that you are donating blood or platelets to Victoria’s Loving Heart in loving memory of Our Precious Victoria.

♡If you’ve never donated blood before, blood donation is a simple four-step process: registration, medical history and mini-physical, donation and refreshments.

♡ The donation process from the time you arrive until the time you leave takes about an hour. The donation itself is only about 8-10 minutes on average if you’re donating blood.

♡If you are planning on donating platelets, the donation takes approximately 1.5 to 2 hours and may be a single or dual arm procedure depending on the collection device used.

♡Also, if you were deferred from donating in the past, you may be able to donate again. Please call 1-800-RED CROSS for more information.

Thank you for making a difference by Giving HOPE ♡ Giving LIFE ♡ Giving BLOOD in loving memory of Our Precious Victoria.
