Mission Statement
Vitalant exists to help people realize their life-transforming potential by offering convenient blood donation opportunities and sharing our expertise in transfusion medicine.
Description
Volunteering to donate blood at Vitalant is one important way to join our lifesaving team, but we also offer other volunteer opportunities that make a difference in your community. Volunteer opportunities at Vitalant vary, but the impact is the same - your actions save lives by helping patients get the blood they need.
Volunteer opportunities include:
Canteen/refreshment area: Vitalant's donation centers and blood drives have a refreshment area, also called a canteen. Volunteers manage the area, monitoring donor safety by making sure each donor stays for 15 minutes and enjoys a snack and drink to help replace lost fluids. Most importantly, volunteers make our donors feel appreciated by thanking them for transforming patients' lives.
Administrative/clerical: Volunteers assist with tasks such as data entry, answering phones, mailings, and sorting and filing.
Drivers/couriers: Some of our locations use volunteer drivers to pick up and deliver blood products.
Blood drive support: Volunteers at community blood drives may work in the refreshment area, check donors in at the door, help with donor flow, hand out thank-you gifts and other duties as needed.
