They must be at least 17 years old, weigh at least 110 pounds and be in good overall health. Sixteen year olds can donate with written consent from a parent or legal guardian. Donors should drink fluids and eat a good meal before donating blood.

Appointments are strongly recommended. Walk-ins will only be accepted as capacity allows.
