Donate blood, plant a tree
During a month that honors Earth Day and Arbor Day, Stanford Blood Center(SBC) is pairing blood donations with environmental stewardship through its #GreenDonor campaign
For every blood donation made in April, including at the South Bay Donor Center in Campbell, SBC will work with Forestmatic to plant a tree, aiding reforestation projects in Uganda and contributing to economic stability in the region. Each donor will receive a unique tree ID to view in an online tracker to watch their tree grow.
In addition, every April donor will be automatically entered into a drawing to win a Yeti cooler filled with a selection of Yeti products, including Rambler mugs, Hondo base camp chairs and a half-gallon Rambler water jug, plus a $500 Whole Foods gift card.
For more information, visit stanfordbloodcenter.org/greendonor. Appointments can be made online at sbcdonor.org, via the SBC app or by calling 888-723- 7831 or texting to 999-777.
