I just wish their hours were better, the one in downtown Vancouver is far and I work when it's open. If they had more roaming units, say at workplaces, or better hours, I'd donate far more.
Ask your company (or your building) to host a blood drive. At my old office tower in Toronto, they would schedule them every four months, and it was always successful, because there were easily 10,000 people within one city block.
I know it would be tougher to do in a post-COVID scenario, but hopefully people would pop into the office for a day to donate blood if people knew it was there.
I don't have 90 minutes during a work day to spend out of the office (15 each way, 60 in the building). I've got too much labour intensive work around the house to donate on the weekend.
Daycare hours prevent me from donating blood.
Prior to changing jobs closer to home, I'd manage my diet to have enough iron to donate as frequently as allowed.
