Today the organization has over 22,000 members.

Why do blood donations continue throughout the year?

How many and why?
To meet the increasing demands of the Israeli healthcare system, approximately 1200 blood donations must be donated each day.
Blood donations in Israel are carried out by MDA's blood services, with the aim of providing all the hospitals in Israel with all the blood components needed to treat the sick and injured, both routinely and in emergencies.

Why is it important to donate blood voluntarily?
To increase the safety and quality of the blood packings, it is very important that the blood donation be given voluntarily, and without any financial rewards. Volunteer donors provide reliable information about their lifestyle habits and medical issues that may be harmful to patients receiving the dose of infusion.
