How old do you have to be to donate blood?!
Question: I remember in school, we had a blood drive, and it was mainly the seniors that went, but when I'm that age, I would like to donate blood. Is the age 18 or 16? I'm asking because of the drive we had at school, they wouldn't come to a high school if no one was old enough, right? I remember them saying you had to be a certain weight too?

I think 16 with a parents written permission but I'm not really sure and you make a point , why go to a high school if everyone is under 18 , also I commend you for wanting to do this , I do it 4 times a year and hopefully I am able to help save someones life.
Good for you and Happy New Year
