Donors May Dedicate Their LifePoints Blood Donation to Habitat for Humanity in March to Triple Their Impact.
Habitat for Humanity is pleased to announce they are the Community Blood Center of the Ozarks (CBCO) LifePoints Lift Partner of the Month for March. Blood donors who have signed up for the LifePoints rewards program could help their donation go further by dedicating their LifePoints to Habitat for Humanity.
CBCO blood donors gain LifePoints because of their whole blood or apheresis donation. LifePoints may be redeemed online for a variety of gift cards, but LifePoints Lift offers a unique opportunity for donors to do something more for the community upon the completion of their donation. Donate blood AND donate points to Habitat for Humanity in March and the impact is TRIPLED. CBCO will convert the points donated to cash and present a check to Habitat for Humanity two times a year.

As the sole supplier of blood to over 40 hospitals in 40 counties in the Ozarks, Community Blood of the Ozarks needs about 200 donations every day to meet local patient needs. Since each blood donation can save up to three lives, one donor can impact the lives of multiple patients. Donors are encouraged to go online or call if they have questions about their eligibility.
Donors can give at one of four CBCO donor centers located in Springfield, Mo., Joplin, Mo., Springdale, Ark., or Bentonville, Ark. There are also opportunities to give at mobile blood drives across the Ozarks in March.
To help avoid wait times, appointments are strongly encouraged. Donors can schedule an appointment at https://www.cbco.org/donate-blood/.
