Seattle Rep is hosting its third pop-up donor center with partner Bloodworks Northwest. Now, more than ever, hospitals are depending on our community to come together to help those in need by giving blood. Donating blood is essential, safe, and remains an encouraged activity.

Advocate: Federal Blood Donation Eligibility
We feel the need to acknowledge the ways in which federal blood donation eligibility criteria discriminates against certain members of the LGBTQ+ community, especially gay, bisexual, and pansexual men. There are several ongoing advocacy efforts to address these policies.
