We love our loyal donors at the SBMF Rieth Blood Donor Center! ❤️ Dean Howard just reached his 73rd donation, and Jeff Owens rolled in with an incredible 96th donation! Thank you, Dean and Jeff, for continuing to show up for patients in our community. We appreciate you both!

Elkhart City Fire and Police Departments are getting ready to host their 4th blood drive this year on Monday, November 16, and they'd love for the community to join them! Stop by or sign up today: donorportal.givebloodnow.com….

We're asking our donors, "Who do they give for?" as part of our "Give for the Game" campaign. Linda Hoppel gives for everyone... to help save lives. But we also have extra incentives this month. Please stop by SBMF and Give!

Our O blood supply is better than it was last week, thanks to those of you who answered our call. Thank you! ❤️ But we're not out of the woods just yet. We still need O+ and O- donors to help keep our supply where it needs to be for patients who depend on blood every day.

Do you have time to donate platelets tomorrow (Saturday)? We have quite a few openings! Please schedule today! Call 574-234-1157.

Some days in the blood donation world are more stressful than others. Today is one of them. Overnight, our supply of Type O blood dropped dramatically. We now have less than a 2-day supply. If you are Type O, WE NEED YOU! Please stop by any of our donor centers today. ❤️

Every two seconds, someone in America needs blood. That need doesn't pause overnight, on weekends, or holidays. The need is always there. Please consider doing your part this week-- especially if you have O+, O-, or A- blood type. Please stop by to give.

She calls her survival a miracle. And she is thankful to so many who she believes were a part of it, including blood donors. Madi is on a new mission to give back and help others. Please sign up for her blood drive today. donorportal.givebloodnow.com…

November is going to be epic. #GiveForTheGame @OSMC1 @rallynotredame

A single serious car crash can create an extraordinary need for blood. 🩸 We especially need O blood types and A-negative donors this week. Hospitals rely on these blood types to help care for patients, including those injured in serious accidents. Stop by a Donor Center!

We want your blood today and every day. We can say that during the Halloween season, can't we? 🩸Drop by the Ireland Road Donor Center today. They're open every Saturday from 7:30 am to 2 pm. Stop by, give blood, and help make a difference for patients in our community.

You know Chuck Freeby the sportscaster. But do you know Chuck Freeby the dad? ❤️ When his daughter went to donate blood, it led to the discovery of a rare, life-threatening disorder. Now Chuck donates plasma monthly at SBMF. Hear his powerful story. 🩸 GiveBloodNow.com

How are we already a week and a half away from Halloween?! 🎃 The holidays will be here before we know it. O-negative blood is especially important in emergencies, so keeping it in stock matters year-round. Donate before your calendar fills up: GiveBloodNow.com

🩸 Your body has a built-in healing system. Platelets are a big part of it. And simply put, many patients in our community need platelets to heal! This week SBMF needs platelet donors tomorrow (Thursday 10/15) and Saturday! Visit GiveBloodNow.com to schedule.

Did you know you can learn something pretty interesting about yourself when you donate blood? It’s one more reason to do something incredible for someone else! Thanks to this IUSB student for sharing his why. Ready to give? Visit GiveBloodNow.com.

❤️ 68 units. Two days. One incredible team! A huge THANK YOU to the employees at Abbott Nutrition in Sturgis, Michigan. Together, they donated 68 units of blood to help make sure patients get the lifesaving blood they need. We appreciate you! GiveBloodNow.com

A car crash. A serious fall. A split-second emergency. No one plans to need a blood transfusion. That blood has to be available BEFORE the accident. We especially need O- and A- this week. Please stop at our walk-in donor centers this week or schedule at GiveBloodNow.com.
