Did you know that in the US alone, a patient is in need of blood every 2 seconds? That’s over 38,000 blood donations each day. Unfortunately, only about 38% of the US population is eligible to donate blood, and only 3% actually do.
Donating blood is an essential contribution to society; an act that literally saves lives. In fact, just one hour of your time can save three lives!
While there are organizations and programs dedicated to blood collection, their success is largely reliant upon community involvement and support. Payoneer strongly supports blood donation, and holds annual company blood drives to show our support.
The 2012 Payoneer Blood Drive was a major success, with close to 100 Payoneer employees that signed up and donated!
If you’re able to give blood, we strongly recommend that you get in touch with your local blood center and donate. If you haven’t donated before, click here for information on the donation process and what to expect.
