I believe in donating blood, yes. I had to have surgery once and needed blood so they took blood from me and my husband which is neat now because I have his blood in me. Plus you never know when a loved one or someone you are close to will need it and have to it. Maybe you will save someones life.

I would donate blood if I could, I'm just too young :( Knowing that someone could live just because of my blood is a good feeling and you probably feel important and helpful.

I donated blood once and did not do it again because I am really afraid of the needles.

I have no experience with tblood donation but in our school there is always blood donation held by red cross. However I am anemic so I can't donate blood.

i have always wanted to donate blood, twice i've tried twice i got rejected. it wasn't because i wasnt fit enough. they said that my veins are too small/thin for them to extract blood. i wish i could, it also benefits the donor because it helps your body produce "new" blood.

I am not able to donate blood for medical reasons. I would love too, but it is not good. I do provide financial assistance whenever I can and I volunteer my time.
