On March 21st, the American Red Cross visited Prism’s headquarters location, where we hosted a public blood drive. Twenty Prism employees participated and 15 pints of blood were collected. One pint potentially helps to save three lives

  • There are four types of transfusable products that can be derived from blood: red cells, platelets, plasma and cryoprecipitate. Typically, two or three of these are produced from a pint of donated whole blood – hence each donation can help save up to three lives.
