Financial donations
“As he got off the elevator, he looked me straight in the eye, briefly put his hand on my shoulder and said the most sincere ‘thank you’ I have ever heard in my life. I told him I hope the platelets help and as the doors slid shut, he answered, ‘they have.’” – Phil, Canadian Blood Services employee
For Phil, it was just another routine delivery of platelets to a hospital. But for the man he shared an elevator with that day, it meant so much more.

With your help
Patients like Charles need donors more than ever to give lifesaving blood products — even during a global pandemic.
Charles has received more than 100 blood transfusions to help treat his genetic condition. Throughout his life, he will require hundreds more. During these uncertain times, new and returning donors are critical to meeting Canada’s needs now and in the future.
Your gift today can help strengthen our national blood system — from donor recruitment to research — and ensure life essentials are there when lives depend on them. Because they do.
It's easy to give
When patients are in need, there’s more than one way to show up and make a difference. Financial donations to Canada’s Lifeline are an important way to answer the call.
Donate each month or make a one-time gift to celebrate a special occasion or honour a loved one. You can even explore leaving a gift in your will, or inspiring and engaging your staff through corporate giving.
No matter how you choose to give, every dollar will make a difference in our efforts to improve outcomes for patients who depend on us.
