Amazing Story

Long-time donor Alex has also been a recipient

J9U0805
I've been a blood donor since 1999. In 2003, I also became a recipient. Six units of blood saved my life, and I have become even more committed to continuing to help support my fellow humans where and when I can. It's the easiest thing I can do and it can help so many people! Thanks to NZ Blood Te Ratonga Toto O Aotearoa for making it easy and enjoyable to give blood, and thanks to all the other people out there who do the same.
