$2M in federal funding secured to build a new home for the Blood Bank of Hawai‘i
“As the US faces our worst blood shortage in over a decade, I am especially pleased that my Committee approved my Community Project Funding to support a new home for the Blood Bank of Hawai‘i. Due in part to its geographic isolation, Hawai‘i particularly depends on the generosity of people to donate the gift of life-saving blood, and we have turned to the Blood Bank time and again to ensure a safe and reliable blood supply for all of Hawai‘i. This funding could not have come at a more critical time.”
