⚡🩸 IT’S ALIVE…THANKS TO A BLOOD DONOR!

Even Dr. Frankenstein can’t manufacture blood. No bolts, bubbling beakers or bolts of lightning can replace the real thing. Blood must be donated by generous people like you.

For patients facing surgery, serious injuries or cancer treatment, your donation can help make more tomorrows possible. When you donate with Miller-Keystone Blood Center, you help keep lifesaving blood available for patients in our community.

🎃 This Halloween, roll up your sleeve, unleash your inner lifesaver and help us scare away the blood shortage!

You don’t need a mad scientist’s laboratory to give life a spark. Just a donor chair and a generous heart. ⚡

Your investments have grown. Imagine the hope that could grow from them.

Some of the most meaningful gifts don’t come from a checkbook. They come from turning years of thoughtful investing into a lasting difference for others.

If you own stocks or mutual funds that have increased in value, donating those assets directly to Miller-Keystone Blood Center may help you make a larger gift while potentially avoiding capital gains taxes associated with selling them first.

Your financial growth could help fuel our lifesaving mission and bring hope to local patients and their families.

As you consider your charitable giving this year, explore whether appreciated assets could make your generosity go further.

The blood shortage is very real and we're looking for local heroes to step up. The 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐨 𝐂𝐥𝐮𝐛 was created to recognize and celebrate donors whose blood has the power to help 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞, 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞.

If you’re an “𝐎” 𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐝𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐫 or an “𝐀𝐁” 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐦𝐚 𝐝𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐫, you have a unique superpower that makes your donation especially lifesaving:

❤️ 𝐎-𝐍𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐬 can be transfused to 𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭, regardless of blood type. That’s why O-negative donors are often called the “first responders” of emergency medicine.

❤️ 𝐎-𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐬 can help any patient with an Rh-positive blood type, making them one of the most widely used blood types in hospitals.

💛 𝐀𝐁 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐦𝐚 (positive or negative) is also universally compatible, meaning it can support any patient who needs plasma, at any time.

Every day, ordinary people step forward and become lifesaving heroes.

Are you ready to join them?

🏍️🩸 THE BLEEDERS OF THE PACK ARE RIDING FOR A REASON! ⚔️

Some heroes wear capes. Others ride motorcycles. But the toughest warriors of all? They roll up their sleeves to save lives!

Cancer patients are the number one users of platelet transfusions. Cancer and its treatments can dangerously lower platelet counts, increasing the risk of serious bleeding. Some patients need daily platelet and red blood cell transfusions for weeks just to get through treatment.

And with platelets having a shelf life of only 7 days, the need for lifesaving donors is a road that never ends.

That's why MKBC's Platelet Warrior Club is calling on YOU to join the pack!

⚔️ 12 donations in 12 months earns you exclusive MKBC merchandise and, more importantly, the satisfaction of helping local patients fight their toughest battles.

🩸 No leather jacket required. No motorcycle necessary. Just the heart of a warrior and the willingness to make a difference.

🔥 The road to saving lives starts with YOU!

Join the pack. Answer the call. Become a Platelet Warrior today!
