I think the blood banks are getting better at advertising their presence. Houston does have an exceptional ad campaign and a very generous set of TV stations.
@aadesig American donors are buried in T-shirts. They consider them to be free advertising for the blood bank. Last saw one on a big gal that looked like she would hardly miss double reds. They want me for platelets. I'm not sure I want to be a donor 24 times a year.
More courage than I have... I don't look although I was tempted to watch them fill the test tubes last time. Back in the olden days, they did that at the very end but now they do it at the start. They also get more tubes as they check for more things.
I have a friend whose wife and little girl got into a car accident. His wife was fine, but his daughter needed a blood transfusion. It saved her life. Someone's kindness made a huge difference for my friend's family. Please donate. You'll save a life.

@SoSpecial008 Unless you're trying to see the needle, you won't see the needle. It's pretty much kept under wraps.
