Blood Group Profiles

Every group plays a different role. Here's who can donate to whom, and how many active donors we have for each — tap any card to search that group directly.

Why It Matters

A few things worth knowing

Blood doesn't keep long

Donated red cells last around 42 days in storage, and platelets only about a week. That's why a steady stream of new donors matters more than any single large donation drive.

🧠

O- and AB+ carry extra weight

O- donors are the universal fallback for emergencies when there's no time to test a patient's group, while AB+ patients can safely receive from any group — which is why we track availability for both closely.

One donation, multiple patients

A single whole-blood donation is typically separated into red cells, plasma, and platelets — meaning one donor can end up helping more than one patient.

Myths vs Facts

Common misconceptions

Myth

Donating blood weakens you long-term.

Your body replaces the donated volume within 24–48 hours and the red cells within a few weeks. Most donors feel completely normal well before their next eligible donation date.

Myth

You can catch a disease from donating.

Every needle and collection kit is sterile and single-use, opened fresh for each donor. There's no way to contract an infection from the donation process itself.
