2022 ESG Report
Drives for Lives
Each year, 4.5 million Americans need a blood transfusion; just one pint of donated blood can save three lives.
Blood transfusions are vital and yet, less than 10% of the eligible population donates blood annually. In 2022, we hosted six blood drives in partnership with OneBlood, a nonprofit organization that provides blood to more than 200 hospital partners throughout the southeast United States. The organization operates 80 donor centers and nearly 200 “Big Red Buses” throughout its service area. Fortegra associates who generously participated in the blood drives doubled the amount of blood donated compared to 2021, resulting in 84 units of blood collected or roughly 252 lives saved.
About 38% of people in the U.S. can donate blood, but less than
10% actually do.
