Give Blood During This Critical Shortage


Vitalant

Brief Introduction of Brother Dr. Charles Drew

Father of the Blood Bank

  • One of the most important scientists of the 20th century
  • Discovered method for long-term storage of blood plasma
  • Organized America's first large-scale blood bank

What is Plasma

 Plasma is a clear, yellow liquid containing various proteins and electrolytes that carries blood cells and other substances through the body. It can be used as a blood substitute to help replace fluids and treat shock. There is an advantage to using plasma over whole blood in emergency situations because it:

  • keeps longer without refrigeration
  • won't deteriorate when agitated during transport
  • can be used with any blood type
  • is much less likely to transmit diseases
  • can be injected through veins, muscles, the skin, and in large doses

Awards, Honors

  •  Appointed Assistant Director of the First American Red Cross Blood Bank (1941)
  • Earned the prestigious Spingarn Medal from the NAACP (1944)
