Your Moment. Their Future.
A simple 15-minute donation can change three lives. Join Donor for Honor and make it happen.
Why Your Donation Matters
In Finland, many patients rely on volunteer blood donors for surgeries, accidents, cancer care, and chronic treatments. Blood can’t be manufactured, so each donation counts—one donation can help up to three patients.
The Urgent Case for Action
Every day in Finland, patients in emergencies, surgeries, and cancer treatments depend on volunteer blood donors. Blood can’t be manufactured, and one donation can help up to three people by providing red cells, platelets, and plasma—each vital for different treatments. The process is safe, quick, and your body replaces the donated amount within weeks.
If you’re healthy, 18–59, and weigh at least 50 kg, Donor for Honor will guide you to the Finnish Red Cross Blood Service. Start by taking their “Sovinkoluovuttajaksi” eligibility test and book your life-saving appointment.

Where Your Blood Goes
Platelets, a key part of your donation, are a vital lifeline for patients undergoing chemotherapy and cancer treatments.
Red blood cells are critical in emergencies to help patients who have lost blood due to accidents or major trauma.
Plasma and blood products are essential to support patients in major surgery or those living with chronic illnesses.

Your Impact by the Numbers
Every single blood donation you make can save up to three lives. Finland needs around 20,000 new donors each year to meet demand, yet currently only about 3% of Finns donate. With over 350,000 higher education students in Finland (approximately 173,600 at universities
and 176,700 at universities of applied sciences ), students represent a powerful untapped resource. By encouraging participation across campuses, we can help close this gap and build a more resilient, lifesaving blood supply.
