Only 8% of people donate blood We need help creating a positive experience for those 8% of blood donors. Would you like to help us keep our vital blood donors continuing to donate their blood by joining our volunteer team of donor ambassadors? As a donor ambassador at our blood drives and/or donor centers help to provide a warm and friendly greeting, assist with reception and hospitality at blood drives and enhance the blood donor experience.
