“Your donation has a huge impact on the life and quality of life of many people.” — Wai Yin, blood recipient and financial donor

When patients are in need, there’s more than one way to show up and make a difference. Financial donations to Canada’s Lifeline are an important way to answer the call. 

Donate each month or make a one-time gift to celebrate a special occasion or honour a loved one.

No matter how you choose to give, every dollar will make a difference in our efforts to improve outcomes for patients who depend on us.  

Financial gifts support our work in five key areas

Blood

Your gift will help educate and recruit the next generation of donors, helping us to meet the ever-increasing demand. You’ll also help to modernize our collection centres, making the donation process go as smoothly as possible and keeping donors coming back to help even more patients.

Plasma

Your financial gifts will help us to recruit more volunteer plasma donors thereby increasing plasma collection nationally and helping patients in need of life-saving therapies.

Stem Cells

Financial gifts help make more transplant matches, faster, by supporting the recruitment of new volunteer donors from diverse backgrounds to Canadian Blood Services Stem Cell Registry and Cord Blood Bank.

Organs and Tissues

When you donate financially, you will help us lead collaborative work aimed at strengthening the organ and tissue donation and transplantation system in Canada.  

Research and Innovation

Your support will help us meet the needs of tomorrow by helping our team of researchers and partners engage in innovative research that will have an impact for generations to come.
