One scheme which would encourage more blood donations would be to
pay the donator a percentage of the value of the unit of blood.
I understand that blood is expensive (~ $25 a unit?).
 
Of course, there would be the problem of people donating too
often if this became overly attractive... [e. g. poor college
students, winos, etc.  :-) ]
