Let’s talk about platelets.

Nearly half of all platelet transfusions go to patients fighting cancer, and for families like Posey’s, they can mean everything. After being diagnosed with leukemia, she became weak, quiet, and lost her spark. A platelet transfusion helped bring her back. But her journey didn’t stop there. After cranial radiation, side effects took over, and she stopped eating, drinking, and doing much of anything. Doctors later realized it was because her immune system was depleted. At the end of her journey, transfusions saved her life again. Within a day, she had energy, was speaking again, and started to feel like herself. Posey’s story began and ended with the generosity of blood donors. In 2023, Posey rang the bell! 🙌🙏

Platelet donors help patients like Posey keep going through some of their hardest days. Platelets also have a very short shelf life, which means the need is constant. Sign up at giveblood.org to make your platelet donation!

Saving Lives #Commitforlife

Our mission: To partner with the community to help save and sustain lives by providing a safe supply of blood, biotherapies, and related services.

The Blood Center

Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center began operations on Jan. 1, 1975. Serving the largest medical campus in the world, The Blood Center has grown to more than 650 employees and serves more than 170 hospitals and health care institutions in the 26-county Texas Gulf Coast, Brazos Valley and East Texas regions.

To meet the needs of the area community, The Blood Center must collect about 800 donations every day. That is why The Blood Center encourages individuals to Commit for Life, a partnership between the community and Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center that is focused on saving lives, today and in the future.
