We’re Updating Our Donor IDs — Here’s What to Know
A planned technology upgrade is coming on January 20, 2026.
From January 17 – 19, we’re undergoing a planned technology upgrade. As part of this update, all Donor IDs will be converted to a new 8-digit ID number.
To support this update, all SBC donation locations will be temporarily closed.
Important Dates:
- Extended Hours
- Wednesday, 1/14 from 7:00 a.m. – 7:30 p.m. at South Bay and Menlo Park donor centers
- Thursday, 1/15 from 7:00 a.m. – 7:30 p.m. at South Bay and Mountain View donor centers
- Tuesday, 1/20 from 7:00 a.m. – 7:30 p.m. at South Bay and Menlo Park donor centers
- All Locations Closed: Saturday, January 17 – Monday, January 19, 2026
- Reopening: Tuesday, January 20, 2026 with extended hours (see above)
Your donor account, donation history, and personal information remain safe and unchanged. Once the update is complete, your new Donor ID will be reflected in the donor portal.
Your new 8-digit Donor ID will be available digitally through the SBC mobile app (recommended), or you can print a free ID card at home if you prefer by ordering a copy from the Donor Loyalty Store. We are discontinuing plastic ID cards entirely with this transition.
