How Many Lives Has Darlene Nicosia Saved?

By day, we’re marketing geeks. Computer nerds. Quirky writers and artists. And damn proud of it!

But after hours, our team members shed their marketing capes – and pursue all kinds of cool Hobbies, Interests and Talents (we call them HITs for short).

Here’s how Darlene Nicosia, a Haley Marketing Administrative Specialist, gives back, when she’s not giving her all to our team:

HIT: Plasma Donor

Back Story

I’m type O negative blood (which just 9% of the U.S. population has), so I’ve donated for years. More recently, however, I’ve switched to donating plasma.

Why do I love donating plasma?

There’s a real need for O negative blood plasma.

Because of my blood type, I’m considered a “universal donor” – meaning that my plasma is especially valuable to newborns who need transfusions. For me, it’s incredibly rewarding to know that every time I donate, I can save 30 babies’ lives.

When I donate…

…I’m typically in a room with several other people who have also taken time out of their day to do the same thing. When I look around, I’m reminded that other people in this world care as much as I do about making a difference in others’ lives – and it’s a great feeling.
