Join the Colorado State Patrol's 6th Annual Blood Drive to Save Lives

(COLO) – Blood donations sharply decline during winter, but this doesn’t stop the need. According to Vitalant every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood. Whether an ongoing health condition like cancer or the need for a blood transfusion from a traumatic injury like a motor vehicle crash, the need for donations is still there!

The Colorado State Patrol is partnering with Vitalant for the sixth year to advance its shared mission of saving lives. Registration is now open to donate blood during the Colorado State Patrol blood drive in February 2026. Troopers are asking you to join them in giving the gift of life!

“We are extremely grateful to the Colorado State Patrol for partnering with us to host an annual blood drive that inspires community members across the state to donate blood for patients in need,” said Vitalant Communications Manager Brooke Derloshon. “Thanks to partners like the Colorado State Patrol, we are able to help hospitals maintain a reliable blood supply for patients such as trauma victims, individuals with blood disorders, and those receiving cancer treatment.”

Sign up using this link or the following QR code to start donating from February 1 – 28, 2026.
