??A standing ovation for SeaWorld San Diego! ?? This week, San Diego Blood Bank and SeaWorld San Diego were recognized by County Supervisor Terra Lawson-Remer’s office for our lifesaving partnership that helped save 34,000 lives last fall! ???? ?? From thousands of blood donors stepping up to give blood in September to SeaWorld’s record-breaking in-kind donation, this collaboration proved that when we come together, we can make a BIG impact. ?? ? ?? We gathered at SeaWorld to celebrate and graciously accept this proclamation and also hear from local leukemia survivor and blood recipient Mia, whose life was saved by generous blood donors. Mia then enjoyed time at SeaWorld with her familly. ??Our hearts are full. Thank you to SeaWorld San Diego for your commitment to community health.

?? Did you know? ?? Heart surgeries can require dozens of units of blood. For siblings like Cadence & Chance, who were both born with congenital heart conditions, blood donations have been a lifeline.?? Because of donors like YOU, they’ve conquered surgeries, hospital stays, and daily health challenges—and continue to inspire others. But they will always need blood to stay healthy and strong. ?? Chance earned his college degree in 2024 and loves to golf. ?? Cadence volunteers with animals, performs music, surfs, and aspires to be a chef! ??Your donation can be the reason someone like Cadence or Chance gets to embrace hope and a live beautiful life.??
