The need for blood is ever constant and every day, Kentucky Blood Center needs more than 400 donors to donate blood so that local patients’ lives can be saved. Patients need blood for a variety of reasons – cancer treatments, premature births, car accidents, diseases, surgeries and more.

As the COVID-19 pandemic persists, Kentucky Blood Center needs healthy donors to give blood. Local donors are the reason why Kentucky Blood Center can provide life-saving blood to more than 70 hospitals throughout the state.

Help save local lives at this upcoming blood drive. All donors will receive a limited-edition KBC hoodie (while supplies last).
