Between Sunday through Thursday, the National Platelet Association and the United Blood Services of Reno and Carson City are sponsoring National Platelet Recruitment Week. If you'd like to become a platelet donor, or just learn more about the process, contact United Blood Services in Reno at 324-6454, and in Carson City at 887-9111. Become a hero and find out more about being a platelet donor.
Platelets are a blood product, and platelets donated by healthy volunteers are vital in the supportive care of patients who are undergoing treatments for cancer, aplastic anemia, leukemia and other medical conditions.
