Giving Life to Your Community

You can give life to your community by donating at either a Central California Blood Center near you or by stopping by one of the many mobile blood drives held every day around the Central Valley.  By donating you help to ensure an adequate supply of blood is available for your family, friends and neighbors when they need it.  The Central California Blood Center is the sole source of blood and blood products for the 31 hospitals in Fresno, Mariposa, Kings, Tulare and Madera counties.  CCBC serves a population base of over a million and a half people and must collect between 5,000 to 6,000 units monthly.

There are four convenient ways to donate:

  1. Central California Blood Centers

    Call the Blood Center nearest you and schedule your appointment. By doing so, you help us to determine how many units of blood will be on the shelf on a daily basis.  Additionally, we can schedule our staff to provide you, the donor with improved customer service.
