• Someone needs blood every two seconds in the United States.
• Just one pint of blood can help save up to three lives.
• Type O is the most requested by hospitals.
• Approximately 38 percent of the U.S. population is eligible to donate – yet only 5 percent actually do.
• Statistics show that 25 percent or more of us will require blood at least once in our lifetime.
