Save50 is a simple challenge: celebrate the life you’ve lived by saving 50 lives in one year — with the time, money or heart you have.
Anyone can make a life-saving difference.
You don’t need a fortune — or even much time. Small, practical actions add up to fifty lives faster than you’d think.
Under an hour of your day, up to three lives saved per donation. Four visits a year and you’ve saved 12 of your 50.
How to donate →Five minutes to join the DKMS stem cell register or confirm your organ donation decision. One match can change a family’s story forever.
Sign up →Volunteer as little as 12 hours a year — lifeguarding, first response, teaching CPR — and you could help save 10 lives.
Ways to volunteer →Effective giving saves lives with certainty. £4 protects a child from malaria for a year. Learn how to donate where it counts most.

“How could I do something meaningful, how could I give back, how could I make a difference? Save50 came about from doing some basic research and realising we all have more power to make positive impact than we realise. Ten hours a year might save twelve lives.” — Rich, founder of Save50
Blood, registers, time, money — choose the actions that fit your life. Every action counts toward your fifty.
The first blood donation appointment or register sign-up takes minutes. Momentum does the rest.
Keep a simple tally. Four blood donations ≈ 12 lives. Twelve volunteer hours ≈ 10. Effective donations ≈ 10 or more.
Post your progress and challenge a friend. Helping someone else save their fifty multiplies yours.
