The Rhode Island Blood Center, founded in 1979 as a non-profit community blood center, serves as the sole supplier of blood to hospitals across Rhode Island. Its main Blood and Platelet Donor Center is located in Providence, with five additional donation sites spread throughout the state to broaden donor access. Beyond blood collection, the center also registers donors for the National Marrow Donor Program and collects stem cells for bone marrow transplants, while providing various therapeutic treatments at local hospitals.

The organization operates a modern laboratory that performs DNA and HLA typing as well as red cell typing, and participates in multiple local and national research initiatives aimed at advancing blood banking. Recent collaborations include a partnership with Cumberland EMS to launch the state's first pre-hospital whole blood program, reflecting ongoing efforts to expand pre-hospital care in Rhode Island.
