About us
Kentucky Blood Center (KBC) is a community based non-profit organization that provides life-saving blood products to over 70 hospitals throughout the Commonwealth of Kentucky. We strive to ensure that every hospital we serve has access to a safe and abundant blood supply. To do so, we rely on generous volunteer blood donors to provide 400 pints of blood every day to meet patient needs. We envision to be an integral and valued part in healthcare and to support our local communities in any way we can by constantly innovating, developing and changing to improve the blood center in the best way we can. We value: ♥ Mutual respect. ♥ Innovation. ♥ Results! High performance should be recognized and rewarded. ♥ “Doing the right thing.” We are able to save lives only through the generous donations of our donors. Donate blood at one of our eight donor centers or a blood drive near you.

AND THE WINNER IS.... ✨ Congratulations to Cherri Owen from Fisherville, the lucky winner of Kentucky Blood Center’s Taylor Swift ticket giveaway! 👏 Cherri, who has been a dedicated donor since 2019, was randomly selected from 9,233 donors who participated in our four-and-a-half-week promotion. Cherri's motivation was inspired by her father's legacy of donating and her daughters' recent health scares. “The possibility that your child or a friend might need blood at any moment motivates me to give. It doesn’t take but an hour, and you can help somebody live,” Cherri said. We want to extend a thank you to everyone who participated. Your support is invaluable, and your donations make a significant impact. If you were a first-time donor, we hope you had a positive experience and will consider coming back to save more local lives. ❤️ Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gQM3uUps #DonateBlood #SaveLives #BloodDonorsSaveLives #KyBloodCenter #Kentucky #Local #Nonprofit
