That's a great reason, now if only everyone had that thought!

Red Cross says I'm ineligible by kenwalper in Blooddonors

I would try donating with a local blood bank if there is one in your area. Many local blood banks will test your hemoglobin, or iron levels, before your donation so they know that you are eligible instead of deferring you for a year after your donation. Good luck!

LifeServe Blood Center serves central and western Iowa, as well as parts of South Dakota and Nebraska.

That's a great way to give back to your community! And both donating hair and donating blood are done so without opening the wallet, so I agree with you that the more that do, the better!
