(210 ILCS 15/1) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 600)
Sec. 1.
(a) Any person 17 years of age or older may donate blood,
if the donation be completely voluntary, without the necessity of obtaining
the permission or authorization of his or her parent or guardian.
(b) Any person 16 years of age may donate blood, if that person obtains
written permission or authorization from his or her parent or guardian.
No donation shall be construed to be involuntary within the meaning of
this Section solely because the donor receives a right to any lawful
preference or special treatment of any kind in receiving blood in return
for his donation.
