If you’re like me, you’ve donated your blood dozens of times for free, right? Well, if you’re looking to make some quick cash – you can always donate your plasma.
The procedure is pretty much the same. They stick a needle in your arm and drain your blood. Only when you “donate” your plasma, you’re being compensated for your time. The process and procedure is a bit more complicated and does take more time – at least on your first intial visit.
From what I’ve learned – you can earn anywhere from $20 to $40 each time you go in and “donate your plasma”. Now, you can’t go and do this every day – most places allow you to donate up to twice per week. That’s an easy $40 to $80 per week.
This money maker is most popular with broke & poor college students, but is becoming more popular with people from all walks of life. Afterall, it is for a good cause. Plasma is commonly used for transfusions to people who have suffered shock, burns or trauma.
Where to donate your plasma? Check your Yellow Pages or a nearby college campus for the closest plasma collection center, blood bank or blood collection center. There are more than 400 for-profit plasma collection centers in the United States.
A few more resources I’ve found include:
Have you donated your plasma? Tell me about it! I’m going to try this myself, so I’ll let you know how it goes.
