I think if you go to a blood center you can at 16 but if you go to a blood drive you have to be 17 yrs old and atleast 110lbs

Age
You must be at least 17 years old to donate to the general blood supply, or 16 years old if allowed by state law. There is no upper age limit for blood donation as long as you are well with no restrictions or limitations to your activities.
yes you have to be at least 110 lbs and at least 17 yrs old
Some places allow you to donate at 16, but you do need to weigh at least 110.
yes, most places require 110 lbs and 17 years old, but to be honest, I would not suggest giving blood unless you weigh at least 140 lbs...I would be afraid of catching some contagious disease from the clinic if I went to give blood.
Blood is more valuable than money,
yes 110lbs is correct
