Blood Donor Center

Our Lady of the Lake's Blood Donor Center serves the community by providing a safe and adequate supply of blood. More than 60 percent of the blood transfused in the entire local community is recruited, collected, tested and distributed by Our Lady of the Lake.

Did you know one pint of whole blood can be separated into several components (red blood cells, white blood cells, plasma, platelets and cryoprecipitate), and a single, whole blood donation can save the lives of three people.

We rely on volunteer donors for our blood supply. These donors do more than give blood-they play a key role in the healthcare process, giving the doctors and nurses in our area a tool that helps save lives.

Please consider donating blood today.
