FitPros x American Red Cross: Uplevel Your Health Fair with a Life-Saving Experience

We’re thrilled to announce a new and impactful collaboration between FitPros and the American Red Cross—and here’s the best part: corporate clients can now include an onsite blood drive at no additional cost as part of their FitPros Health Fair.

Yes, you read that right. At no cost to you, we’ll help coordinate a blood donation experience that could save dozens of lives—and make your wellness event even more meaningful.

Why Blood Donation Matters

For over 140 years, the American Red Cross has been a pillar of humanitarian relief. Founded by Clara Barton in 1881, the organization now supports nearly 40% of the U.S. blood supply—serving trauma patients, cancer warriors, premature infants, and those with chronic illness who rely on blood transfusions to survive.

Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood. Every unit collected at your onsite drive could save up to three lives. That’s powerful. That’s purpose in action.

Why FitPros?

Because wellbeing is more than yoga mats and step challenges. It’s holistic. It’s personal. It’s community. And sometimes, it’s about giving people the chance to give back—in a tangible, life-saving way.

This partnership directly supports our core value of making wellbeing accessible and inclusive. As our founder, Lindsay Johnson, puts it:

“Every employee is going through something, but they’re not all going through the same thing. So how can we meet them where they are?”

By adding a blood drive to your Health Fair, you’re creating space for people to feel part of something bigger. That’s the kind of wellness that lasts beyond the snacks and swag.

How It Works

There’s no additional cost to add a blood drive to your FitPros Health Fair—but we do need a few logistical pieces in place:

• 1,500+ sq. ft. of indoor space (first floor or elevator-accessible) with clear, open layout

• Room-specific temperature control, good lighting, and at least four electrical outlets

• Strong wireless signal (for donation tracking equipment)

• Bathrooms on the same floor

• Accessible parking for Red Cross staff and an equipment van

• Privacy: space must be separate from other public-facing areas

• Tables and chairs (about 6–8 tables, 20–30 chairs, depending on the room)

  
  

Please note: The Bloodmobile Bus is not available in this district, so indoor space is required.

To make the drive effective, we aim for 35–45 donor appointments, which typically result in 25+ usable units of blood.

Let’s Make an Impact

You already care about your employees’ health—this is your chance to expand that care into the community. Whether you’re a first-time host or you’ve partnered with FitPros for years, this no-cost enhancement gives your onsite Health Fair a powerful boost in purpose.

Let’s roll up our sleeves—literally—and make a difference.
