I am truly honored. I hope every blood donation I gave was able to help save a life. I always wonder about how the recipients are doing, and what circumstances led them to need a life saving blood transfusion. The blood bank keeps all of that private for security reasons, of course, along with the name of the donors who donate. I just hope it all helped.

    “You donated 3 gallons of blood, here have this fugly glass ball”

    Sorry but man that’s an ugly piece. Well done though! The real price is feeling good about doing something good.

      They have other awards, but a person needs to reach a higher level of donations to earn those awards. I didn’t think this one looked bad. I think it’s supposed to be an ocean wave encapsulated in a glass sphere. There is another one that looks like a red blood drop and a larger one that looks like a blue rain drop. The last one requires 100 donations, I think.
