Donor Day Off Program
We've Lowered the Count!
To raise our supplies, we've lowered the count. Giving blood just became even more rewarding for Scott & White employees.
We know you give blood to save lives, and we want to reward you for that. Donating blood is the right thing to do! That is why we are now giving you a Donor Day Off (DDO) after just four donations.
It's as simple as 1-2-3-4!
- Starting in 2009, donate whole blood four times at the Scott & White Blood Center or on the bloodmobile
- Save your Donor Cards at the bottom of the "Important Donor Information Sheet"
- Give your four Donor Cards to your supervisor
- Schedule a Donor Day Off!
We've Increased the Benefits!
Can't give blood? Just recruit eight new or lapsed donors, and we'll give you a day off, too!
It's as simple as 1-2-3-4!
- Starting in 2009, recruit eight new or lapsed donors at the Scott & White Blood Center or on the bloodmobile
- Remind your recruited donors to let our staff know at the time of their donation you recruited them to give, and we'll keep track of your recruited donations on a DDO sheet
- Once you've recruited eight donors, give your DOO sheet to your supervisor
- Schedule a Donor Day Off!
