i'm 18 years old and donated blood 3 times and I'm waiting for the next time to donate! I really like donating blood because of the great feeling before, during and after the donation❤💉🩸 it doesn't hurt at all and the medical staff are so adorable and will help you to relax if need and will be interested at you all the time❤ so go and donate blood!🩸💉 it'a easy, safe, helpful and healthy for you😁
I’m donating blood tomorrow at school because why not? Edit: It clotted but the needle only pinches a little bit when it goes in. You don’t feel anything after that. I recommend. The staff was pretty chill and you get free food and sometimes other things like shirts or gift cards. I got a shirt. You get free testing for STDs cholesterol, and other things. You also get to miss out on boring classes if you’re doing your school drive and it feels good to help those in need. I recommend donating blood if you qualify. It is really not that bad and I quite enjoyed it. Edit: donating again tomorrow 🤪
If you are 16 or 17 in Colorado you may donate if your parents sign an acknowledgment form. Learn more here: bonfils.org/index.cfm/donate-blood/parental-acknowledgement/
