Platelet donors, we have a brand new promotion for you. Our “Power Up ” promotion starts September 1st and ends on November 30th. When you donate platelets five times in that time span (September 1st through November 30th) you are eligible to choose one of four limited edition items offered only to our fantastic platelet donors.
Choose between:
- Navy windbreaker with We Are Blood embroidered logo
- Travel/computer backpack with embroidered We Are Blood logo and “Platelet Donor”
- Oversize canvas tote with embroidered We Are Blood logo and “Platelet Donor”
- A four-pack of Alamo Drafthouse tickets
You can donate at all four of our donor centers for this promotion.
We will take care of tracking how many times you have donated in that time period. If you have any questions you can reach out to Shivani Drinkall at [email protected].

Platelets have a short shelf life of 7 days, so there is a constant need for these life-saving donations all year long. Platelet donations go directly to help local cancer patients (both pediatric and adult), organ and bone marrow transplant recipients, trauma and burn patients, as well as pregnant mothers.
