Finding FIRST TIME

Blood Donors 

Earn $100 for

every first timer you sign up in the app!

So what’s so special about a first timer?

A first time donor is a BIG DEAL, because it means the blood donor pool is growing! We’re inching towards a blood shortage because there aren’t enough NEW blood donors!

*the fine print: first time means the donor has never donated blood with Our Blood Institute OR ever attempted to donate blood with OBI before. If a donor has been deferred by OBI in the past, they are not considered a first time donor.

  • Finding a First Time Donor

    It’s simple! JUST ASK! Most people have never been asked about donating blood. Just say - “hey, have you ever donated blood? You can save 3 lives with one donation!”

  • Add the Donor to the Donable® App

    Get the donor’s information and add them as a new donor your app. Then make their appointment! Not sure how? Go to our Agent Resources page!

  • Earn $100 Every Time!

    Once the donor successfully donates, you’ll get $100 in your app! Do this as many times as you want! 10 first time donors is $1000!

Facts about Blood Donation to Persuade Someone to Donate Blood

  • Only 3% of eligible people donate blood in the U.S. That is NOT enough people to maintain the blood supply. We need MORE blood donors!

  • One in seven people who enter a hospital will need a blood transfusion. We need enough blood on the shelves to help anyone at any moment.

  • There is no substitute for blood. When a doctor needs it to save a life, it’s most of the time the ONLY thing that’ll save that patient.

  • There are simply not enough young donors (between 16-30 years old). Most blood donors are older than 40. We need a new generation to step up!
