Puget Sound Blood Center volunteer opportunity

Imagine Saving a Life!

Looking for a fun, flexible, convenient way to give back to the community? Puget Sound Blood Center regularly holds blood drives throughout North Seattle. We need volunteers to greet and register blood donors as well as serve them refreshments and monitor them after their donation. We also need people interested in promoting the bone marrow donor program and helping people join the national marrow donor registry.

Volunteering is as important as donating blood. Without volunteers, we’d never be able to do what we do — supply our local hospitals with blood so patients in our community are able to get life-saving transfusions when they need them.

Volunteer scheduling is flexible. Volunteers will be sent a link to our on-line scheduling system. You sign up for what works with your schedule. There are lots of opportunities on the UW campus.

Join “One Force for Life” The UW blood drive club promotes blood drives, educates about blood donation, and offers support to blood drives on campus.

Steps to volunteering:

1. Print out a volunteer application and reference forms at http://www.psbc.org/volunteers/index.htm

2. Call or email the volunteer coordinator to set up an orientation (takes about 1 hour)

3. Get started when it works with your schedule!
