Can blood collected in one place help patients elsewhere?
Our primary focus is serving patient needs in each of our collection sites’ geographical areas. In times of shortage, however, our regions call upon each other to fulfill emergency needs. Blood products are transported where they are needed. In times of disaster and war, all blood banks work together to aid victims.

In addition to the questions and answers, the Web site offers many services such a calculator to help a donor figure out when he or she can safely donate blood again. Other information about volunteering, where to give blood, and also about opportunities to win items are posted on the site. At the present time, donors could win Red Sox tickets or possibly a two-year car lease from KIA of Danvers.
