The Irvine campus donor center is hosting blood drives this week on Wednesday, Jan. 26 & Thursday, Jan. 27. The national blood shortage is at a crisis level and your blood donation will help people in our community. Many hospitals have canceled surgeries and we at UCI Health are lucky that we have people like you who are willing to help. All blood types are needed.

The blood drives will run from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. both days. The blood donor center is located on level 1 of the Student Center, adjacent to the Courtyard Study Lounge in room B106. Everyone who donates will receive a canvas tote bag and their choice of a T-shirt or $5 gift card from In-N-Out. In addition, you will be entered into our January drawing to win one of three Amazon gift cards valued between $100-$250.

Appointments are required and limited to maintain social distancing. Make your appointment here
