We’re excited to share that we’ve opened a pop-up donor center in Puyallup inside the former Cascade Regional Blood Services donor center. Whole blood donations can be made every Tuesday starting March 26 until we expand operations later in 2024. Appointments are now available on our donor portal. #BloodworksNW #Puyallup #GiveBlood

When Kristin Kleinhofer's acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) returned, she picked a mantra, a quote by Christopher Reeve: "Once you choose hope, anything's possible." It's this hope, along with the decision made by two families to donate their babies' cord blood and the generosity of more than 90 blood donors, that powers Kristin today. July is Cord Blood Awareness Month! Stem cells from umbilical cord blood are used to treat more than 80 diseases, such as leukemia. To learn more about the Cord Blood Donation Program at Bloodworks NW, visit https://ow.ly/5pEX50SucMf Listen to the full Bloodworks 101 episode wherever you get your podcasts. #BloodworksNW #CordBlood #GiveBlood #Bloodworks101
