Donors will receive $20 eGift card

The Blood Connection will be back at Walmart today from 11-7. All donors will receive a $20 eGift card. The Blood Connection continues to try and boost its blood supply, as donations remain low across the area. They offer COVID-19 antibody testing with every donation.

If you have tested positive for COVID-19 within the last six months or took the vaccine after having had a positive test, you are likely eligible to donate convalescent plasma. To do that, you will need to make an appointment by calling 864-751-1168. With the recent surge in COVID cases and hospitalizations, there is an increased need for convalescent plasma donations.
