Urgent Call for Blood Donations During National Blood Donor Month

The Mississippi Blood Services (MBS) is urgently asking for donations during National Blood Donor Month as O and B blood levels have reached dangerously low levels. MBS said that your contribution is needed now more than ever to help save lives.

Special Rewards for Donors:

By donating blood between January 5th and January 11th, you’ll not only help address the critical shortage but also be automatically entered into the Lucky Duck Giveaway for a chance to win a $150 Visa gift card. The winner will be announced on January 13th.

Additionally, all donors will receive a $15 Visa gift card as a thank-you for their life-saving contribution.

Your Donation Saves Lives:

Blood donations, especially of O and B types, are in critical demand, and one pint of blood can save up to three lives. Let’s work together to meet this urgent need and ensure every patient gets the life-saving care they require.

To Ensure a Safe and Successful Donation:
