After doing extensive research, including surveys to our amazing blood donors, we will be retiring the term Trauma Team when referring to O negative blood donors like you. Based on the feedback we received, the name UNIVERSAL HERO- is what resonates most and that is what you want to be called. We are glad to do so! Our mission remains the same: helping to save lives through blood donations. We can’t do that without blood donors like you. THANK YOU!

When a patient shows up with minutes to live and there is no time to determine blood type, emergency personnel reach for your type O negative blood!
There is no way to predict when or where an accident will happen – which makes having O negative blood available at all times so critical.
