Aloha!
DAGS is co-hosting a blood drive with DLNR on June 25. It’ll be in a Bloodmobile between Kalanimoku and City Hall. There will be snacks. 😊 BBH Dereck Kaneshiro explains what is involved with giving blood!
It’s a public event so your family and friends are welcome to join!
Please sign up to reserve a spot – the QR code is on the attached flyer. If you don’t want to use a QR code, you can still sign up by either calling (808) 848-4770, or going online. Please block an hour for donating blood.
The Call Center team is available Monday-Thursday from 8:00am-8:00pm, Friday & Saturday from 8:00am-4:30pm and closed on Sunday.
If you are going online, the link to our DAGS blood drive is https://bbhdonor.org/index.cfm?group=op&expand=33309&zc=96813
They can take a drop-ins but prefer to plan ahead with staffing and resources. You may have to wait if you are a walk in.
Here is information about how to prepare, what to expect, and who qualifies to donate: https://www.bbh.org/become-donor/
Reminders for Blood Donors (so donors have the best possible experience):
Drink eight to 10 glasses of water within the 24 hours prior to your appointment, eat a healthy, hearty meal, and get adequate rest. Include iron-rich foods in your diet.
Bring a photo ID (eg. driver’s license, state ID, military ID). If you’re taking any medications, it is helpful to bring in a list of the correct names and amounts, or the actual bottles themselves. Be sure to have your international travel dates on hand as well.
If you have tested positive or have been in close contact with a COVID-19 carrier, do not donate blood for 10 days after either your test or complete resolution of symptoms.
Look forward to seeing you there and thank you for saving a life! Mahalo for creating this awesome video🙏🏼🙂
