?? O-negative roll call! ?? O-negative blood donors play a critical role in saving lives. As universal donors, their blood can help anyone in an emergency — making them essential when every second counts. ???? We asked O-negative donors why they give, and their responses were filled with compassion, purpose and a deep commitment to helping others. ?? Swipe through to read real stories from real heroes. Their words are a powerful reminder of what it means to lead with heart and take action when it matters most. If you're O-negative — or if you're unsure of your blood type — you could be someone’s match when they need it most. Make your impact.
