Shepeard Community Blood Center is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit blood center. Our mission is to collect, process, and distribute blood and blood products. We are the contracted provider for 23 hospitals in 30 counties across the two-state area. We partner with you, the local volunteer blood donor, to fulfill our mission.

Walter L. Shepeard, a nationally known name in the blood banking industry and chairman of the Department of Medical Technology at the Medical College of Georgia, had a vision for the area - to create a community blood bank that pours life blood into the patients at our local hospitals.

Today, Shepeard, partners with local hospitals across the two state area by providing blood and blood products to their patients in need.
