How can I become a member?

This can only be done via the just mentioned “register” page (https://safeblood.net/en/become-a-member/ – or with your country extension instead of “net”) on our website. Please fill in everything required there – we will guide you through the registration process, where you will, among other things, enter your personal data and be asked about your vaccination status. You also upload an ID there, because we need to be sure you are a real human being. We also ask you to pay a membership fee for two reasons: First, our organization has become very large and administratively complex; this costs money. And second, this is an extra step to make sure you are not “gaga members” or even “moles” (infiltrators) – only those members who are actually for and with us take on this extra expense and effort.

The recommended membership fee is 50 EUR/CHF/USD per year, billed per calendar year (Africa 20$). These are standard prices for people with normal income, but you determine the contribution according to your means. If you are not among the wealthy, you just transfer 10 or 20 Euros or whatever, if you can, you pay more. It is important that you get involved at all, because “action is reaction” – that’s why you become a member; because you know that without your commitment, your help, it won’t work. Just wait until the others have already done everything and then sit in the made nest is also possible, but maybe you are a pioneer rather than a follower 😉

Very important: please fill in the information we need. It is absolutely useless if you become a member but do not tell us your blood type or how and where you can be reached. You will be entered into a (completely anonymous) database where we and you can search for potential blood donors – if there is no information in there, the whole thing won’t work. However, if you don’t know your blood type right now, no problem, you can become a member now and add it later.

If you have difficulty with computers (please fill out your membership application on a PC or at least a tablet – it’s cumbersome on a cell phone), ask your kids to help you, if you don’t have any, send us an email or give us a call – we’ll help you then.
