Thank you for your interest in becoming an Olgam Life donor! You are welcome to stop by at any time, no appointment necessary.
Just be sure to bring:
1. Your current, unexpired ID 2. Proof of address within 50 miles of a center (a piece of mail or a bill with your full name and address will do) 3. Your social security card or a tax document with your full name and SSN displayed
The center will help you complete a health questionnaire and conduct a quick physical to determine your eligibility. After each successful donation, you will be paid between $50-$60 in NYC and between $50-$140 in Florida.
Donate your plasma for money as there is a worldwide need for plasma donors because plasma is a critical component of many life saving treatments. These plasma protein treatments (PPTs) are used for patients with chronic, rare, life-threatening illnesses that oftentimes require dozens of procedures each year. Your plasma donation could be the difference for someone fighting to stay alive.
Our plasma donation process uses the highest safety standards in a sterile environment and a cutting edge automated system for faster donation times. Our staff receives ongoing training to help ensure the most pleasant experience possible for our donors.

When you arrive
You’ll be greeted by a receptionist who will review your documentation. If it’s your first visit you’ll be given a brief physical. You’ll be asked to fill out a Donor History Questionnaire, and a center technician will take a small blood sample from your finger to check your protein and hematocrit levels.

Your donation
If you’re eligible to donate, you will be taken to the donation area and seated in a comfortable reclining chair/bed, blood will be drawn, plasma will be separated from your blood, and red blood cells will be returned to your body through a process called plasmapheresis. Fear not, the process strictly follows FDA guidelines and is totally safe.

You're all set!
And you’re done! The whole process for a first-time donation is less than two hours, and subsequent visits are around 90 minutes with a VIP Donor Program for any Returning Donors. Your Olgam Life paycard will quickly reflect the added payment amount for your donation. Be sure that you drink plenty of fluids, eat a healthy meal and refrain from strenuous activities for the remainder of the day.
(Pssst. We have the best rates in New York!)
Give back and get cash
Because plasma is such a valuable asset in the medical world, Olgam Life offers reimbursement for the time it takes to donate. Payments are distributed onto a debit card, which is reloaded after every donation. We also offer additional rewards for return donors!

I have had the pleasure of working in the plasma industry for nearly 6 years now. I find it rewarding to help my community help others! It is important to me to provide high-quality plasma products while creating a wholesome environment for all! In my free time, I like to create art and to explore nature! Good music never hurts as well!
