My place of work has volunteered to provide food for the local Red Cross' monthly blood drive in July. I'm making decorated cookies. The Red Cross rep was very excited about this.
I could just make summer stuff -- beach balls, ice cream cones, etc. -- but I'm up for more of a challenge.
So ... what says "blood donor" to you?

Because it is the logo of the blood donor place here in Quebec...!
What about 'bags' of blood with blood types on them? Too gross?
Exactly what I was thinking! But I am a nurse so nothing really grosses me out very often.

They're making deposits at the blood bank, not withdrawals!
You are too funny!

You can look on my flickr site and see the blood droplets I did for my son's eagle scout project that was a blood drive. I know they're super simple but people just really loved them! Sometimes simple is just the perfect touch. Good luck!
ps. The original picture is on a different computer, otherwise I would've attached it here.
I think a few that look like vampire teeth thrown in would be funny.
Too funny! That's the first thing that popped into my head as well.
Perhaps a band aid cookie.
Here are a few ideas from the gallery.

I like the idea of blood bags or band aids. there are a few pics in my photos of some I did for my the staff at the hospital when my SIL was in last year.
Just a thought...when I've given blood, the last thing I want to think about is giving blood! I'd rather see cookies that are funny (like vampire teeth) than realistic (like bandaids). That's just me. Give me a bright colored smiley face and I'd be happy!
