In the past three hours, you've helped us raise another $5,000 for a rural hospital in Ghana. Global Blood Fund is almost 70 percent of the way toward its goal of $20,000 — and with your help, we think we can reach that by the end of the day. Every dollar can help save a life! https://bit.ly/4c2L1xy

If you've been a blood donor for very long, then you know it can be a struggle to keep up with hospital demand. But in places like Ghana, it can be far more difficult. That's one of the biggest reasons why we're raising money for Ghana's Hope Christian Hospital ahead of World Blood Donor Day. Those funds will serve as the foundation for a future blood bank in the hospital. We're talking about saving tens of thousands of lives — with your help, we will! Join us today: https://bit.ly/3Vz3ITh.

You can make a difference in Ghana! Our Blood Institute is partnering with Global Blood Fund to raise money for Hope Christian Hospital so they can one day open up a blood bank to serve millions: https://bit.ly/3Vz3ITh.
Less than two weeks ago, twin babies were rushed to Village of Hope's Hope Christian Hospital in Ghana needing O-negative blood that wasn't there. As a result, one of the babies died, leaving the other to grow up without their twin. These kinds of stories are why we're working to raise money for Hope Christian Hospital, money that will help them one day open a blood bank with the ability to serve millions: https://bit.ly/4aZIF1Q
