Did you know?

Plasma is the straw-coloured liquid part of blood that contains important proteins and antibodies.

These proteins are used to manufacture immunoglobulin (Ig) therapies that help people whose immune systems cannot produce enough antibodies themselves.

Without plasma donors, these treatments simply wouldn't exist.

This International Plasma Awareness Week, we're thanking every donor who helps make these life-saving medicines possible.

✨ Plasma powers possibility.

As International Plasma Awareness Week comes to a close, we say thank you to every plasma donor. Your donation becomes immunoglobulin and other medicines that people with primary immunodeficiency depend on to stay protected and well.

Plasma can’t be made in a lab. It can only come from people like you. The week may be over, but the need is not.

💬 Have you donated plasma yet? Tell us in the comments. If you have, thank you! If not, and you’re eligible, please consider becoming a regular plasma donor. 💙

💪🩸 Be the power behind lifesaving treatments.

For people living with primary immunodeficiency, plasma-derived immunoglobulin is a lifeline. It can't be made in a lab. It can only come from generous donors.

This International Plasma Awareness Week, could you be that donor? Every donation helps protect someone who can't protect themselves.

🩸 It's International Plasma Awareness Week!

Plasma contains proteins that protect us, help us heal and keep us breathing. For people with primary immunodeficiency, plasma-derived immunoglobulin is life-saving treatment. It cannot be made in a lab. It can only come from donors.

In South Africa, every plasma donation counts. Could you give?

01/10/2026

5 - 8 October is International Plasma Awareness Month.

Will you donate plasma in order to enable patients access to lifesaving treatment? South African patients need your support. Without your plasma donations, patients do not have access to immunoglobulin replacement therapy.

Be a hero - donate plasma!
