Host A Humankind Blood Drive and make your mark on the world.

About Humankind

We all have the power to do something good for someone else. One small thing can change someone’s life or even save it. When we come together to help humankind, we make our mark on the world.

Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood. Hospital patients are relying on donors to give blood today to help ensure blood is available for the lifesaving treatments they need. It’s one of the few powerful ways we can give— human to human. And, when we give blood through the American Red Cross, we pay human kindness forward.

Show the best of yourself and human kindness today. Sign up now to give blood or host A Humankind Blood Drive and let’s save lives together.

Give blood and show you are #Humankind.
