If you do, what are your motivations?
If you don't, why not?
Do YOU donate blood?

Yes. Could save someone's life. Doesn't cost anything. Side benefit of getting a regular health check too (they notify you if they find anything during screening). I'm healthy, clean living and know that my blood is good so why not.
Also I'm a donor. My Aunt died needing a transplant. If I die and my organs can be used to keep someone else alive - I would like to help. I think it's a really important issue - but understand if people don't want to.

Ah teel,
Really easy - if you're in the uk - check out the site:
Just be aware that they will send you info through the post which is clearly labelled blood donation.

Thanks 2014, I'm a bit far from UK but the info on the site should help me expand my knowledge at least.

Yes, for 4 years....
1. I figure if I am going to accept a blood transfusion, I should donate if I am physically able

Yes I do. It's just the right thing to do. I'm in good health, know how it benefits people who need it, and wouldn't hesitate to accept it for myself or my family if it was needed.

I give blood to make up for all the blood jw's use up by 'not' taking blood.

Yes, I did as part of my healing process. It was a statement of freedom for me.
I haven't done it since because it made me pass out (whoops) and I felt HORRIBLE physically. I realize this isn't a good excuse. I'm working up my courage to do it again.
