If you have fully recovered from COVID-19, learn how you may be able to help patients fight the virus by donating your plasma.
Donations
Donate Money and In-Kind Goods
- Cash donations to the non-profit of your choice is the best way to help.
- You can find vetted non-profit organizations supporting COVID-19 response efforts at NVOAD.org.
- Don’t collect or make donations until you are sure it is needed, who will accept it and how it will get there.
- Email FEMA-Donations-MGT@fema.dhs.gov with questions about how best to donate.
Donate Blood or Plasma
- Another vital need during this time is blood and plasma donations. Unfortunately, many blood drives have been cancelled and donations at plasma collecting centers have significantly declined.
- Donating blood and source plasma is a safe process. Both blood collecting centers and plasma collecting centers have the highest standards of safety and infection control.
- To find where you can donate blood, visit aabb.org. To find where you can donate plasma, visit the FDA’s Donate COVID-19 Plasma page.
