Help Canadian Blood Services by donating this summer

Canadian Blood Services is calling on generous Canadians to donate blood and ensure hospitals stay stocked with life-saving essentials for patients this summer. Your donation can make a crucial difference.

To meet the rising demand, CBS needs new donors of all blood types. However, it is particularly urgent for those with group O blood to donate as soon as possible.

Bikram Singh Basra, CBS Community Development Manager, highlights that only 80% of available appointments are being booked each week. So, there’s a significant opportunity for more donors to step up and help.

Blood products are essential in everyday medical care. Many individuals with various health conditions rely on regular transfusion therapy, making your donation a vital part of their treatment.

Visit Blood.ca to book an appointment with Canadian Blood Services in Kingston. By donating blood, you can help save lives and support your community.

You can also use the GiveBlood app to book a donation, or call 1 888 2 DONATE (1-888-236-6283).

Together, we can make a life-saving difference this summer!
