MKBC'S UNIVERSAL HERO CLUB

saving lives..... one pint at a time

Become a Hero In Our Community!

You can make a difference! Our Universal Hero Club recognizes and rewards our “O” red blood cell donors and “AB” plasma donors. The red blood cells from an O-negative donor, and/or or the plasma from an AB (positive/negative) donor can be transfused to anyone in need, regardless of blood type. Additionally, the red blood cells from an O-positive donor can be transfused to any patient with an Rh-positive blood type. These blood and plasma donations is especially important in accident/trauma cases, where there may not be time to identify a patient’s specific blood type.

To show our appreciation to these individuals, we’ve created our Universal Hero Club!

“The rarest blood type is the one not available at the moment it is needed by a regional hospital patient.”

If a double red blood cell donor achieves a 3rd double red donation in the same year, they will receive a $50 e-gift card!
