Blood donation saves the lives of accident victims, surgery patients, cancer patients and many others in need. Donating blood is safe, easy and takes about an hour. Sacramento State’s faculty and staff members are eligible for a "Fast Track" pass, which expedites the check-in process. Blood donors must weigh 110 pounds or more, be in overall good health and 17 years old or older, 16 with a signed BloodSource parental consent form.

The blood drive is open to students, faculty/ staff and the general public at no cost. Participants will receive a BloodSource T-shirt and will automatically be entered into a weekly drawing for a Yeti Ice Chest, $100 gas gift card, and $100 grocery gift card.
