Last term, four Year 12 students travelled to Tamworth to donate plasma as part of a community service project.

Plasma is the yellowish liquid part of your blood that holds all the other blood cells.

It is used in a whopping 18 different life-giving ways.

Why give plasma instead of blood?

When you give a blood donation, it contains some plasma. But, when you donate just plasma, you give about twice as much.

That’s more plasma to help more people! (ref: Australian Red Cross)

Between the group, approximately 3L of plasma was donated – a great effort!
