I have a genetic blood disorder, so I have never had a chance to give blood, and it is something I do wish I can do. Growing up my dad would go like clockwork whenever he was allowed to give, he was there donating. I can not say what I would give up, since this exact topic is not even an option to me, but knowing you can just give a little time and comfort to save someone life, is something I wish was an option for me.
By the way I know in NYC they blood banks are frequently begging the public for more blood since they are consistently low.
