Donating Blood with Vitalant
Learn more about the partnership between Vitalant and Goodlabs, which includes select locations where free bloodwork is available with your regular blood donation.
Donate blood with Vitalant through Goodlabs
Goodlabs partners with Vitalant, a non-profit blood provider that supplies about 900 hospitals across the country. The partnership covers select Vitalant donation centers in San Francisco, not every Vitalant location. When you book at a participating center through Goodlabs, you get free bloodwork as an eligible donor. To get started, use the Book your donation panel on the right to find the participating center closest to you.
Participating Vitalant donation centers
Goodlabs currently works with two Vitalant donation centers:
- Stonestown Donor Center, 555 Buckingham Way, San Francisco, CA 94132
- San Francisco Downtown Donor Center, 250 Bush Street, San Francisco, CA 94104
Free bloodwork through Goodlabs is only available when you book at one of these participating centers. Other Vitalant locations aren't part of the Goodlabs partnership.
Participating blood drives
Goodlabs also works with select blood drives. When you search for a time in the Book your donation panel, participating blood drives near you may appear alongside donor centers. Eligible donors who book a participating blood drive through Goodlabs get the same free bloodwork. Blood drives are temporary, so check the panel for the latest dates near you.
