The Rhode Island Blood Center was established in 1979 as a private, not for profit agency by Rhode Island's Hospitals to collect, process and distribute all of the blood used in our state. Surgeries, emergencies and special therapy for chronic illness are among the many needs that creates a continual demand for blood. You are invited to join the Rhode Island Blood Centers' Volunteer Program. A little of your time can make a world of difference.
Many different jobs are available.
We aim to match each volunteer to the job they desire. You can choose the role that matches your interests, the hours that fit your schedule and even the location that is most convenient. You can volunteer virtually anywhere in the state of Rhode Island, on any given day.
