Looking for Lifesavers! Donate Blood and Enter the Prize Draw
One blood donation can help up to three patients and may save a life. Donate blood and you could win a fantastic hengenpelastaja (lifesaver) t-shirt! We’re holding daily prize draws among all visitors at Blood Service centres across Finland from 8 September to 31 December 2025.
Why take part?
Donating blood is a concrete and easy way to help patients. And it always feels good! Blood products are given to premature babies, cancer patients and accident victims, among others.
Every year, more than 20,000 new blood donors are needed to ensure a sufficient and diverse donor base in Finland – one that can support patient care now and in the future. Can I donate?
How to enter the prize draw
Book an appointment or drop by any Blood Service centre between 8 September and 31 December 2025. The draw is held among those who have given email permission. You can confirm your permission status with a nurse. First-time donors will receive a Lifesaver bag!
Hengenpelastaja-t-shirts are made of 100% organic cotton and manufactured in Portugal. The shirts are unisex and available in sizes S–XXXL.
The T-shirt is valued at 29 euros, and during the campaign, one shirt will be drawn per donation day. Winners can order their preferred size of the t-shirt free of charge from the Finnish Red Cross online store.
