Exciting Update to Donor Loyalty Store Point Accrual
By Victoria Somerville, Marketing Manager
Exciting news! As of August 24, we are officially able to offer our dedicated plasma and platelet donors extra points for our Donor Loyalty Store based on the amount of pints given during a single donation! Based on this new breakdown, platelet and plasma donors will have the base points per visit they would have earned, multiplied by the number of units given! While we know that not everyone is able to give multiple units, this is a way for us to honor those donors who can and do go the extra mile and sit in our donation chairs a little longer to help even more patients.
The updated points breakdown for all donation types is below.

If you are a whole blood, platelet or plasma donor, points are earned on this schedule, per donation, within a calendar year:
