Miller-Keystone Blood Center Launching Hope for a Match Rare Donor Program

Give the Best Gift of the Season on #GivingTuesday
Give the best gift of the season this year – the gift of life! Miller-Keystone Blood Center is encouraging everyone to share the joy of giving on #GivingTuesday. MKBC relies on the community for monetary support, but for those unable to provide a monetary gift, we are encouraging the gift of life. Donating blood, platelets or plasma is safe and easy, and will only require approximately one hour of someone’s time. But for the transfusion recipient, that gift can mean everything.
