Memorial Blood Centers will have a bloodmobile parked in front of the Minneapolis Labor Centre (312 Central Avenue) between 11am and 3pm on Tuesday, September 15th.  Please consider donating blood!

Most people (more than 60 percent of the population) are eligible to donate blood. 

Basic guidelines:
You must be at least 17 years of age- 16 with parental permission.
You must weigh at least 110 pounds, if 16 weigh at least 130 lbs. and be at least 5 feet tall.
You should be in general good health and have no symptoms of infection at the time of donation. You may safely donate whole blood once every eight weeks (56 days). You should eat a good meal in the six hours before donating and have had adequate sleep in the past 24 hours.

For the safety of donors and recipients, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has guidelines and restrictions about donation eligibility.  Memorial Blood Centers' staff will determine your eligibility either before or at the time of donation.
