On behalf of Our Blood Counts, we ask for your support in calling for a
blood plasma donor centre in northern BC.
We want Canadian Blood Services to build this centre because:
- Canada collects only 20 per cent of the plasma it needs from domestic sources;
- Patients need plasma-based medications for serious illnesses like cancer, kidney disease, and immune issues;
- Canada needs 100,000 new blood donors every year; and
- Northern British Columbians want to contribute but now have to travel long distances to make life-saving blood donations.
Please electronically sign the petition below.
- We will only provide your name and community to Canadian Blood Services when we send this petition.
- We may publicly report on the number of people who have indicated support (without naming anyone).
- If you agree, we may contact you with updates. We will stop contacting you when you tell us to.
