Join Parachute
Reimagining the world of plasma donation.
Will we see you at our plasma donation drive next week? Come visit us at our new West Columbia mobile donation center. Appointments are available in the Parachute app: www.joinparachute.com/app.
All of them 🙌 Did you know that regardless of your blood type, you can be a hero by donating plasma? Join us in spreading awareness and encouraging others to donate plasma. Together, we can make a difference.
Welcome, Seguin 👋 We're happy to announce our newest center is now open in Seguin, Texas. See you on the members' floor.
Answer the call. Have a great weekend, love Parachute ❤️
First we hydrate, then we donate.💦 It’s no secret that staying hydrated is vital to our overall health and it’s even more important if you’re a blood or plasma donor.
Drinking plenty of water before and after your donation helps with circulation, can make veins easier to find, helps your body replenish lost fluid, and can even make your donation appointments go quicker.
We recommend hydrating first thing in the morning since we often get dehydrated during the night. If you need a visual cue, carrying a reusable water bottle is a helpful hydration reminder throughout the day. Cheers! 🚰
Donating plasma is better with friends. 🤝 Share your referral link and get rewarded.
Your plasma donation is so much bigger than you. When you donate plasma, you can be a part of a community that connects patients to the life-saving medicine that they need. Everyone donates for different reasons. What’s yours?
Spread the word, raise awareness, and join us in the fight against Primary Immunodeficiency Disorders.

We love playing a part in improving the health of others. Who wants to join us in helping people who suffer from these types of conditions? ❤️
Whether it’s a extra money for the must-haves or the why-nots, Parachute can help. Book a visit. We’ll take care of the rest.
Repeat after us. Rest is a necessity, not a reward.
The well-timed nap comes with many benefits to your emotional and physical well-being, including boosting your mood, improving your memory, increasing productivity, and reducing inflammation in the body, which can help support immunity.
Our tips for nailing your next nap? 💤
• Nap early in the day
• Keep naps brief—ideally 20-30 minutes
• Give yourself permission to rest
• Create a nap routine. Make it as dark, cool, and quiet as possible. Try an eye mask or a weighted blanket, if those help you.
Everything's better with friends. Did you know? You can earn up to $70 for each friend you refer to Parachute. That's more medicine for patients and more money in your wallet. It's basic math.

👋 Nice to see you, Kingsville. Closing out the year with the opening of our 4th Texas location and we couldn’t be more grateful for our team and our members 🪂
Giving plasma & giving back! In case you need another reason to this season ❤️🩹❄️ We're proud to support Navarro County Boys & Girls Club, SHARE Foundation, Harbor House - The Northwest Georgia Child Advocacy Center, The Crisis Center, CASA for KIDS of Paris, Texas, and Restore Hope through our Holiday Donation Challenge.
First we hydrate, then we donate ✔️💧
The easiest way to have a quick and easy donation? Hydrate. We recommend increasing your water intake in the 24 hours leading up to your appointment.
Unlike whole blood donations, which can be done 1x every 56 days, plasma donors can make even more of an impact with their donations and donate 2x every 7 days. 📅
Keep in mind that you'll have to allow for 1 day in between donations so that your body can recover. Since plasma is 90% water, it only takes about 24-48 hours for the body to regenerate its plasma.

You may wonder what happens to your plasma after your donation. 🤓💭 Post-donation, your plasma is frozen to preserve its quality, tested, and then transferred to a fractionation facility.
During fractionation, the plasma proteins are carefully extracted and turned into medicine for patient populations who need it the most.
