Plasma donors, RARE BLOOD, and advocacy wins

from BloodStream

On this episode of BloodStream—our plasma donation series continues with a powerful second installment featuring donor Hannah and the story behind what it really means to give. We've also got a packed lineup: a look at momentum building at the WFH World Congress, policy progress led by State Senator Joseph Addabbo supporting families with rare disorders, and new momentum in storytelling as Sanofi backs additional documentaries spotlighting rare blood conditions. Plus, we dig into the bigger picture—how bleeding disorders impact entire families, the role creativity plays when navigating physical limitations, and the isolation that can come with not knowing someone who shares your experience. And don't miss a spotlight on The Red Ink Project and their virtual screening of Dismissed, a film bringing long-overdue visibility to women and girls with bleeding disorders. All that and more—this is BloodStream.
