Special thank you to Brandon White, BMO U.S., one of our community partners, gave his first donation ever at VoK! "1st Blood Donation for me! I will be a blood donor for LIFE😊 2nd visit scheduled for October! “My Son would not be here today if it wasn’t for blood donors. During his two open heart surgeries he received several blood transfusions to survive. Donating can literally be the difference between life or death….that’s why I will continue to make the sacrifice and donate blood to save a life." 😊

We are blood health innovators who enhance lives through discovery, diagnosis, and treatment.
About us
Versiti was founded with the belief that together, our blood centers can better serve people’s urgent need for life-saving healthcare. That we can strengthen and restore the health of our communities while conducting groundbreaking research. That we can integrate scientific innovation, medicine, and service in ways that no other blood health organization can match. We’re driven by the urgency of our work and inspired by the generosity of the people we rely on for life-saving donations. We have the privilege to safeguard these gifts and ensure they go where the need is greatest, in our communities and beyond––and our hospital and healthcare partners across the nation rely on the speed, safety, and availability of these gifts. Our people are driven by a relentless curiosity. As the home of the world-renowned Blood Research Institute, we attract leading blood health researchers from around the world who are passionate about advancing personalized medicine. We conduct focused research in areas like cellular therapies, oncology, and genomics, to make a difference in the lives of people through the healing potential of blood. People need people. There is no substitute for blood, organs, tissue, or bone marrow. They are precious. They are perishable. And the need for them is vital. As a partnership of blood centers, we’re far stronger together than we are alone. Ultimately, the meaning of our work is found in the lives we save and the people we serve. Our dedication to service and safety will enable us to become the partner of choice for hospitals everywhere. Our commitment to scientific rigor can save lives and advance the field of personalized medicine. And our commitment to building deep relationships with our donors will transform Versiti into a beacon of hope, care, and innovation in the communities we call home.
