Are you ready to make a difference? The La Trobe University Lifeblood Team has already saved 1,710 lives this year with 308 dedicated donors – and we want you to be part of the impact! With 1 in 3 people needing blood but only 1 in 30 donating, our community can really make a difference.
Book your donation now at www.lifeblood.com.au or via the Donate Blood app. Every drop counts.
Why Give Blood or Plasma?
Lifeblood needs more than 1.7 million donations annually to meet the demand. With donor centres near all La Trobe campuses, it’s never been easier to give the gift of life.
Donate before May 31 to ensure your contribution is counted in the Tertiary Blood Drive (1 March – 31 May), where universities and TAFEs across Australia compete to save the most lives.
Currently, we stand 17th nationally with 279 donations in the Blood Drive – huge thanks to the 29 new donors who gave their first-ever donation as part of the team!
If you’re a new or existing donor – consider getting involved. If you donated but forgot to join the team, it’s not to late for your donations to be counted – simply join the Team however you book your appointments.
