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 by region, but the impact is the same-your actions save lives by helping patients get the blood they need.

• Our organization focuses on providing life-saving blood products to our communities’ hospitals to serve local patients that are undergoing various treatments.
  
  As a Vitalant volunteer your role would be:

  • Registering donors at a check-in station
  • Thanking our donors in the donor canteen area
  • Restocking snacks, and refreshments as needed
  • Handing out promotional gifts.

  Please note: We can work with your schedule.

REQUIREMENTS

• Must be at least 16.
