Support cancer care
Each year more than 23,000 Minnesotans are diagnosed with a potentially life-threatening cancer. And since 2000, cancer has surpassed heart disease as the leading cause of death among residents in our state; it also is the leading cause of childhood mortality.
Blood products and platelets are essential to sustaining the lives of patients undergoing cancer treatments and chemotherapy. Your dedicated financial support for one of our Cancer Care programs will help ensure that Memorial Blood Centers is able to continue to provide the highest quality blood products for recipients as well as the best experience for donors.

Bloodmobiles
Thanks to the generosity of nearly 3,000 contributors, including a $50,000 gift from the Fred C. and Katherine B. Andersen Foundation and $10,000 from the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community, the first of two new bloodmobiles went into operation in 2009 to replace vehicles in our aging fleet and enhance the experience for donors. Attendees and contributors to our annual What’s Your Type? events also played a significantly role in helping us achieve this milestone. The second bloodmobile was recently put into service as well.
