Yes! Civilians are indeed able to donate blood at one of our centers or blood drives provided the donor can access the donor center or the location of the blood drive. All of our blood donor centers are located on military installations, and we conduct drives only on federally owned or leased properties per DOD policy.

The ASBP is responsible for providing blood and blood products to deployed service members in the heart of the battlefield. While ASBP blood recipients are most often thought of as deployed service members injured in the line of duty, the ASBP also provides blood for service members and their families back home and in military treatment facilities around the globe. Additionally, the ASBP's recipient base extends beyond the military community. In cases of natural disasters or other catastrophes, the ASBP is called upon to serve civilians in need, not only here at home but globally as part of humanitarian missions. Anyone receiving blood or blood products in a combat area will receive blood transported by the ASBP. To know that your donation is directly supporting the military overseas and at home, look for the red, white, and blue blood drop when you donate.
