Keep on donating. If you give platelets (automated donation) you can get your count up very quickly.

I am up to 44 donations for One Blood and donations elsewhere when I registered back around 2007. And, I also sometimes donate at One South if they have a blood mobile around and it is time to donate. I probably have another 4 donations at One South since 2007. So, I am just about at 6 gallons. Much of this from giving platelets via the automated process. Not sure if the Villages Parrotshead Club Blood Drive people allow you to give platelets as it is a special machine and takes quite a bit longer.
