Alberta RCMP and other first responders from across Canada are donating blood this month as part of the Sirens for Life campaign.

On Wednesday, Jan. 7, Deputy Commissioner Trevor Daroux, Commanding Officer of the Alberta RCMP, alongside other officers, STARS, AHS, and the Canadian Armed Forces, made donations to the campaign and are encouraging other first responders to do the same.

RCMP Deputy Commissioner Daroux says, “as first responders, we see how critical donated blood can be in moments when life hangs in the balance. Giving blood is one of the simplest but most impactful ways we can support communities.”

“I’m grateful to every first responder who was able to give and help save a life.”
