On Monday 49,322 of you booked appointments to donate blood.
Maybe you’ve donated. Maybe you’ve booked in and are yet to give. Maybe you stood in line for hours. Maybe you’ve shared our posts. Maybe you’ve done some impromptu customer support and answered your mates’ questions about how to donate.
We appreciate it more than you know. And so do blood recipients and their loved ones.
You, our donors, are the true Australia. What we’re made of. What defines us. Who we are.
Together, we mourn and we remember. And we support each other.
Life is the reason.
