June 16

Sugar Land, Texas

My company held a Blood Drive today.
Out of our 11,000+ customers - we had 12 people show up at the donation center.
Out of 12, 9 were able to donate.

I wonder why no one wanted to donate. Nice capture of the traveling lab.

I'm surprised that so few people donated today; any idea why?

A great organization and fine shot of the special bus. Seems so easy to spend a little time to help someone in need. V

Wow, that is very discouraging to hear. I mean, everybody has enough blood to donate a little bit of it to help those in need. But good on your company for sponsoring it, at least.

Here in Canada, it's become very difficult to even GIVE blood, it takes about 1 hour to do so, countless questionnaires and so on. Their screening has become extremely bureaucratic ... with good reasons I guess, but it does turn off many potential donors, myself included. Maybe people have lost the reasons why it is so important to give blood and how it is so essential to health cares. So the processes, time and location of the drive have to be reviewed! But in your country, it may be altogether different!

A disappointing result. I wonder what could be done to attract more donors.

That is a very cool bus! It is a pity that only 12 people felt the need to help...
