Loyalty Program FAQs
Give blood and light up someone’s sky.
As an O negative donor, you’re on the front line of saving lives. Although only 7% of people have your blood type, 100% of people can use it. That makes you one of the brightest stars in our universe.
Join our
Universal Lifesaver loyalty program
and put your donations to work. Program members receive limited-edition gifts all year round as our thanks for stopping by to donate and helping maintain a stable supply of universal O negative blood.
How does it work? Every time you come in to donate in 2026, you can register to receive a new, exclusive gift as thanks.
All O negative donors who register and come in to donate March 1–April 30, 2026 will receive a portable fan as thanks.
