This summer, Goodwill Manasota is partnering with SunCoast Blood Centers to bring mobile blood drives to Goodwill locations across Sarasota and Manatee counties. With 32 drives scheduled from May through August, there are plenty of opportunities to donate — and to be rewarded for it.
Every eligible donor receives a $30 e-gift card from SunCoast Blood Centers and a $20 Goodwill gift card, while supplies last. Appointments are encouraged and can be scheduled by scanning the QR code at your nearest drive site or visiting suncoastblood.org. Walk-ins are always welcome.

How to donate
The SunCoast Blood Centers bus comes directly to Goodwill store parking lots. When you arrive, the team walks you through the entire process from check-in to completion. The whole donation typically takes about an hour.
