Blood Donation Requirements

Cure2Children is a non-profit, secular and apolitical organization dedicated to the care of severe diseases of children like cancer, leukemia, thalassemia, sickle cell disease and other curable conditions in developing countries. We believe that to empower health care more attention has to be given to issues which are important but not necessarily urgent.In many low-resource settings the bottleneck to health care development is lack of qualified personnel as much as short finances.Focusing only on humanitarian emergencies is not enough and may not attract and retain health professionals.With expertise in caring for severe diseases of children C2C works with leaders, globally and at country level, to design and test solutions to one of the world’s biggest development challenges: That all children have access to appropriate care.Thank you for taking the generous step in considering becoming a blood donor. As you can imagine donating blood is a critical service and as such needs to be conducted under strict and rigorous rules to ensure the safety of our donors and the blood supply. This results in there being occasions when blood donations are offered but must be declined by the Blood Service: whatever the result is from your offer, thank you.
