    That's amazing! I use to give blood but I had iron issue a few years back and haven't returned since. I donated 11 times.

    I always want to, but I get very dizzy when I do and I am always the only driver around. Bad combo

    I let a vampire suck my blood once. That’s my good deed.

    I use to give regularly was well over a gallon, then after one time I received a note from them saying I was deferred for a year. I asked them why and they wouldn't tell me. All I can figure I must have accidentally answered a question wrong. Never been back since that was over 30 years ago

    I once did. I lived in Europe during "mad cow" scare and now not allowed to give here in the US.

    Wish I could. I have awful veins. Takes multiple people to successfully start IVs on me even with the vein finder. 🙁

    My blood clots when I donate so I cant give anymore. But I save lives at my job.

    Did not get frustrated with old people learning technology and was able to get them through the training.

    i give money and food to the people with signs at intersections when i can, especially First Nations. i don't judge. i was almost homeless when i was young, and know what it's like to go without.

    i can't give blood unfortunately

    I’ve tried a couple times, but I’ve never been able to. I’m always turned away.

    I used to donate blood all the time in my younger days...sadly it was usually through the nose during a drunken brawl.
