First developed in Zimbabwe, Club 25 is an initiative to promote blood donation among young people, who present a low-risk population for the spread of transfusion transmissible infections (TTIs). Club 25 members in Malawi make a pledge to donate blood 25 times during their lifetime. The primary aim of this study is to compare a Club 25 donation program to the current standard procedures for student blood donor recruitment in 30 secondary schools in Malawi. Roughly half of the schools will be randomly assigned to a Club 25 intervention and the study will collect data on student blood donations in all 30 schools for three school years. Upon completion of data collection the rate of student blood donation will be compared between the intervention schools and the non-intervention schools.
