National Blood Donor Week
You bring colour to little lives
Children deserve a life in colour. To roll down green hills and splash in blue oceans. To pick a yellow flower. To choose their favourite colour (and change it twice a day).
Sick kids need blood just like adults do. Your blood makes life — and colour — possible for children with serious illness and injuries.
Donate between 8th June and 19th July for a vibrant, limited-edition bandage by Aussie artist David Booth, inspired by drawings from the kids of the Women's and Children's Hospital, Adelaide.
Donate together to bring colour to even more little lives. Learn more about Lifeblood Teams.
