A New Way to Raise Money for Charities?
Suppose that celebrities donate their celebrity blood to separate blood banks. Wealthy people who need blood could then have the option of paying to receive celebrity blood. An extra incentive would be the knowledge that the money would be for charity.

1. Um no- blood typing is pretty complicated
Sometimes you need a certain type of blood and lots of it. and fast and then there are transportation and storage issues.....Wealthy or poor people have the same biology so this idea has no practical bearing. Also not everybody can be a donor so you are talking about a very very small pool of donors.
