Thank you all for your continued support. You never know when you or someone you know will need plasma. It’s truly the gift of life!
We understand, things are different now. One thing however hasn’t changed, the need for plasma remains constant.
| 26 Plasma can be donated every two weeks. That means you can help save a life 26 times a year. | 53% of Canadians will need plasma or blood products in their lifetime. | 4 The need for plasma is more than 4 times what is currently donated in Canada. | 700 Donated plasma and blood products are sent to 700 hospitals across Canada. |
| Before the COVID-19 pandemic, we hosted over 10,000 group donations across Canada each year. | During the pandemic, group donations have dropped by almost 70%. Coordinating a group donation for people who are working from home, is still possible. It is a great way to re-connect with friends! |
Currently, over 1500 plasma donation appointments need to be filled at the Sudbury Plasma Donor Centre each month. Appointments are required to ensure physical distancing and every appointment needs to be filled to ensure a strong national inventory is available to patients where and when they need it.
Help save lives together!
