Donating blood is a simple act that can mean so much to those in need. January is National Blood Donor Month, so what better time to make a donation and impact someone’s life? That “someone” could be a loved one or friend. It’s the time of year when local blood supplies are dipping due to high patient demand. Don’t wait until a person close to you needs blood, act now by giving at the Swedish Pop Up Donor Center on the Amazon Campus(Van Vorst & Arizona). Donating locally means there is life-saving blood product on hand, when it is needed, right here in Seattle. Bloodworks NW is now testing all blood donations for COVID-19 antibodies. Learn if you have the antibodies powerful in helping critically ill coronavirus patients when you give blood through January 9, 2021. Your test results will indicate if your immune system had produced antibodies to the virus, regardless of whether you ever showed symptoms.

January 7 & 8 Arizona Room

All donations are by appointment only. The one hour donation appointment is a safe and essential action to support local hospitals and patients.
