The month of May is notorious for a drop in donations at United Blood Services. The dip is attributed to the beginning of summer vacations, graduations, better weather - a whole host of factors that divert people's attention away from the importance of donating.

UBS is open all weekend, so please consider taking a moment to donate. Click here to fill out the health profile or to make an appointment.

If you were to need blood, you'd want some to be available, right? Pay it forward, the life you save could be your own, or that of a loved one. Or that of a stranger. One way or another, it will be a life that you save.
