Fun Fact Friday:
1 in 2 people in Canada have either required blood and blood products themselves or have a loved one who has. This is especially true in the transplant community. 1 in 2 people are also eligible to donate blood and plasma, yet only 1 in 81 does.
There are over 17.5 million eligible donors in Canada, but less than 2% donate blood or plasma. For many, it is because they just haven't been asked or encouraged to donate. So, if you know someone who might be a willing blood donor, encourage them to book an appointment with Canadian Blood Services! https://www.blood.ca/en
