May 07, 2025

Members and supporters of the blood and biotherapies community can register now to participate in the AABB Foundation’s virtual walk for World Blood Donor Day. 

Each year, World Blood Donor Day is celebrated on June 14 to thank all those who make life-saving gifts of blood and raise awareness of the need for safe blood and blood products. The AABB Foundation invites members of the blood and biotherapies community to walk, run, roll or pedal a 1-mile or 5K distance anytime May 14 through June 14. 

All proceeds will benefit the AABB Foundation’s efforts to fund scientific research that advances treatments and care for patients and donors around the world. Registration is available for both individuals and teams. 

The AABB Foundation also encourages participants to share photos of their involvement in the virtual race on AABB’s Facebook, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, and Instagram. Photos can also be emailed directly to the AABB Foundation.
