  • Lifesouth Community Blood Centers' Five Points of Life Foundation 2017
    LifeSouth Community Blood Centers’ Five Points of Life Foundation 2017 Annual Report ® MISSION The Five Points of Life Foundation commits to increasing lifesaving donations through leadership in education, partnerships, awareness and advocacy on the five ways to share life: blood, apheresis, bone marrow, umbilical cord blood and organs and tissues. WHAT WE DO AND WHY Annually, we teach more than 25,000 students about lifesaving blood donation because: • Every two seconds somebody needs blood. • Only 10 percent of those eligible to donate blood do so. • Blood cannot be made artificially. The curriculum includes hands-on activities that teach students about blood components and the apheresis process because: • Platelets are used for cancer patients and heart surgery. • Plasma helps trauma and burn patients, transplant recipients and patients with clotting disorders. • Platelets only last five days so donations are always needed. We partner with LifeCord, a public cord blood bank licensed by the FDA because: • Cord blood can treat more than 80 diseases. • Cord blood doesn’t need to match as closely as bone marrow, making it easier to find a match. • More people would donate cord blood if they knew it was free, painless and saves lives. We host registry drives at all Five Points of Life events, adding potential marrow donors to the Be the Match Registry® because: • Bone marrow and stem cells are used to treat more than 30,000 patients each year. • 70 percent of patients have no donor match in their family. We partner with Donate Life at our events and educate high school students on why to register as organ donors because: • More than 120,000 people are waiting for an organ transplant.
