Donor Programs - O Neg Club
O Neg is the "Universal Donor" blood type; ANYONE regardless of blood type can receive O Neg. This means in case of an accident, where there isn't time to find out a patient's blood type, O Neg is used. If there is a blood shortage and we run out of say AB+, then those patients can receive O Neg in its place. There is a down side though, if your are O Neg you can only receive O Neg, so O Neg's have to provide for themselves AND everyone else in an emergency. About 8% of the population is type O Negative. Since we here at the Community Blood Bank ask you for more, its only fair that we give you more.
So in 2012, if you donate three times in a calendar year you will receive a O-Neg Club T-Shirt. If you are kind enough to give life four times in 2012 you will receive a 4-Life T-shirt. In 2012, on your fifth trip in a calendar year, O-Neg donors will receive a Travel Mug. For the 6th time gift in 2012 donors will receive a beautiful Beach Towel.
"I donate blood because I am O negative and there is a great need for that blood type. It’s a great way to help the community." - Heather Grooms
