You can go to OneBlood's website for more information here. If you don't know your blood type, they'll test it for you when you donate.

Oh, and I keep forgetting but there are also OneBlood locations in Georgia and the Carolinas as well.

The first thing I ever covered was the line to donate blood at the OneBlood near Pulse the morning after the mass shooting. The attack remains a deeply shattering and traumatic event for Orlando's citizens, and they won't let it be forgotten despite the admin's best efforts over the years.

Her brother is a match for the bone marrow transplant, but 50 units is a whole lot of blood so if you or anyone you know are in the OneBlood service area and have African ancestry, you could change this girl's life if you're a match.

Calling it a race against time, OneBlood says it needs 50 units of rare O Negative blood to help an 18-year-old who's battling sickle cell disease undergo a bone marrow transplant.

I hit 38 gallons of blood donated 😁

Just two more gallons to go before I hit the next big donation milestone, and I should hit that before the end of the year as long as my iron stays good.

And, speaking of OneBlood, they're asking Florida donors to be sure to donate because we're the only state in their service area that's not about to get totally hammered with snow.

Just want to take a second and note that I've gotten way more engagement on here than when I shared another OneBlood rare antigen donor search over on Twitter a few years ago, even though I had way more followers over there.

When I went to donate blood today, OneBlood was back to using their supplemental mosquito-borne illness questionnaire, so Florida folks, I guess that means you should be using mosquito repellent because they must be seeing enough dengue to ask donors about symptoms again.

It’s that time again! #godonste #oneblood #donate #donateblood #blood even if you can’t get help you can still help other people who might need it desperately.

It’s another great day to decide to go donate blood! It literally saves lives. #OneBlood #donor

OneBlood is back to using their supplemental mosquito borne illness questionnaire in parts of Florida, so I assume they must be detecting dengue in blood of people without a travel history again. DEET or picaridin mosquito repellent is your friend.
