April is National Donate Life Month. ❤️ It's time to recognize the many ways people show up for each other. This month, together with our friends United Tissue Resources, we honor those who have given others a second chance at life through organ, eye, tissue, and blood donation. We also celebrate those who have received those gifts of life.

Every donation helps support patients in our community, and it all starts with someone deciding to give. You have life-saving power within you.

This National Volunteer Month, we highlight Brooks Barlow, a lifelong champion of kindness and community. 🚑❤️ From his first donation in high school to his continued efforts in retirement, Brooks finds joy in thanking and celebrating donors and spreading awareness about blood donation.

Having seen the lifesaving power of blood donations firsthand during his time as a nurse, Brooks knows how much every pint matters. Inspired by his story of giving? Join Brooks in making a difference and learn about all the volunteer opportunities at weareblood.org/volunteer!

No joke, we’re making it very easy to do something good and get something delicious in return! 🍗 From April 1-15, lend an arm and donate blood.

As a thank you, you’ll get hooked up with five free wings from our friends at Pluckers Wing Bar. Savor your time saving lives with a side of wings. Bring a friend, make a plan, and turn your donation into something to celebrate afterward.

Okay, this might be the coolest thing we’ve seen! 💙

One of our regular platelet donors’ mom turned his donor tees into a quilt, so he could stay cozy while caring for others. 🥹 Every square = lives saved right here in Central Texas. This is truly platelet donor cool!

Thanks for sharing this with us, Tom. And, to Tom’s mom - you rock!
