National Blood Donor Week is observed June 8–14, with World Blood Donor Day celebrated on June 14th. The week recognizes the generosity of voluntary blood donors whose donations help save lives every day through surgeries, cancer treatments, emergency care and ongoing medical needs.

As summer approaches and the need for blood and plasma grows, this is an excellent opportunity to promote the League's “Partners for Life” team and encourage members, their families and parishioners to consider becoming donors.

The Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus honours the heart of Jesus Christ as a symbol of His passionate love for humanity. It is often depicted as a flaming heart encircled by a crown of thorns. The national theme, Ignite Your Passion, Empower His Mission, follows the Sacred Heart and calls us to share in His passion. Let us honour Him by enthroning the Sacred Heart in our homes and dedicating ourselves and our mission to Him through divine charity and service.
