About our Partnerships

America's Blood Centers' collaborative efforts aim to raise awareness about the critical need for blood donation, advocate for policies that support a robust blood supply, and implement innovative strategies to engage donors and ensure a steady availability of blood products.

Advocating for Key Policies
Advocacy is at the core of our collaborative efforts. We work with a network of organizations committed to advancing the priorities outlined in our Advocacy Agenda, championing the value of blood to patients, communities, and the healthcare system.

Raising Public Awareness
Together with our partners, we aim to shine a spotlight on the critical need for blood donation. Through coordinated efforts, we educate the public about the importance of donating blood and encourage more individuals to become regular donors.

Driving Innovation in Blood Collection and Distribution
One of our key goals in partnerships is to foster innovation in the field of blood collection and distribution. By collaborating with like-minded organizations, we aim to explore and implement cutting-edge strategies that engage donors effectively and address the evolving challenges in blood collection, distribution, and utilization, ultimately saving more lives and improving public health outcomes.

BAW No Year
