Other ways to help

Does your workplace allow you to donate blood during working hours? Suggest your employer that you could donate blood to achieve a Blood Service’s workplace certificate.

Every group needs someone to bring inspiration; and so does a donor group! The main task of the contact person for a donor group is to encourage blood donation in their community.

As a member of the Stem Cell Registry, you can save the life of a seriously ill person – and be the only one who can do it! Help those in need of a stem cell transplant by joining the Stem Cell Registry.

Blood Service partners promote sustainable, long-term social responsibility by encouraging their stakeholders to regularly donate blood or to seek people to join as members of the Stem Cell Registry.

Blood donation events can also be held at your workplace or school. The set-up depends on the number of potential donors.

We conduct preventative research work. Providing a biobank sample to the Blood Service Biobank is easy. It does not require a separate visit or sampling, but can be provided at the time of blood donation.

Encourage others to donate blood. The length of the campaign can be anything from three months to over a year.

True stories are the best to motivate donors! Have you received a blood transfusion or a stem cell transplant? Write an informal account of your experiences. We share stories from people who have received blood products and stem cell transplants on social media and on our website.

Join the Finnish Red Cross as a volunteer, member or donor. You can also find plenty of information and support on the FRC website.
