Host a Blood Drive

UCI Health transfuses an average of 1,000 units of blood to our patients each month.

Blood drives scheduled at local schools, businesses, places of worship and community events ensure that we have enough blood for all of our patients and help us save hundreds of lives every year. There is no substitute for human blood.

Why host a blood drive?

Every three seconds, someone needs blood. Yet, less than 2 percent of Orange County's population donates blood.

The blood we collect at blood drives stays here in your community, serving your friends, neighbors and co-workers.

Hosting a blood drive at UCI Health is a partnership that benefits everyone involved:

  • Your organization earns goodwill from the community
  • Donors feel good about giving back
  • Patients who need blood are able to get it
  • UCI Health is able to ensure it has a reliable and safe supply a blood
