Host a mobile blood drive
Over 80% of UCHealth blood products are the direct result of community-hosted blood drives.
Among the many organizations who have hosted a mobile blood drive are Hewlett Packard, Intel, and Colorado State University. Their willingness to host a blood drive contributed significantly to the patient care successes of our hospitals.
