RapidPass®

RapidPass® can help save time during your blood or platelet donation.

The process is simple—just 4 steps—and takes about 10 to 15 minutes.

1. Get started with some initial information.
2. Read through the pre-donation materials.
3. Answer your health history questions.
4. Print, download, or email your RapidPass® to yourself and bring it with you to the blood drive.

RapidPass® is compatible with most mobile devices, but if it is not compatible with your device then we encourage you to schedule an appointment to donate and answer the questions when you arrive.

Thank you for your willingness to participate in this blood drive. The American Red Cross blood supply is currently at "critically low" volumes. Because of the urgent need for eligible donors, please consider inviting family, friends, and co-workers.
