Blood Centers of the Pacific


BCP’s High School Program

High school students have a chance to make a big difference in the lives of people in their community. How? By taking part in blood drives and helping to save lives.

Blood Centers of the Pacific (BCP) receives a significant amount of our blood supply from high school blood drives. We rely on the support and dedication of our area high schools to maintain a safe and adequate blood supply for patients throughout the Bay Area.

BCP’s “HEROES for Life” High School Program

Statistics have shown that people who begin donating blood in high school are more likely to continue giving blood throughout their lifetime. BCP’s goal is to cultivate that habit - the “HEROES for Life” High School Program encourages students to take part in blood drives, donate blood and to make it a lifelong commitment.
