Your blood is produced by your bone marrow. As long as your bone marrow stays the same, your blood type stays the same.
The only way that I know of to change a person's blood type is to have a bone marrow transplant.
I was a bone marrow donor, and was shocked to learn that the recepient would have a new blood type after she received my marrow.
I hope that helps.

Blood Type Inheritance
Inheritance of blood type is not a simple matter. Each biological parent donates one of their two ABO alleles to their child. While a person may have group "A" blood, he may have genes for both groups "A" and "O." If "A" group is dominant, the child's blood will be group "A." However, a person can give his/her children genetic material for either group "A" or "O." The same is true of "B" group. If both "A" and "B" genetic material is given to the child, the child will have group "AB" blood. A child with genes for "O" from both parents will be group "O." The following chart shows the possible blood types of a child as compared to the blood type of the parents. The word "possible" is highlighted since these combinations are only theoretical and subject to ones own family tree.
Mother's Blood
O A B AB
O O O,A O,B A,B
Father's A O,A O,A O,A,B,AB A,B,AB
Blood B O,B O,A,B,AB O,B A,B,AB
AB A,B A,B,AB A,B,AB A,B,AB

Just wanted to agree with Michael K and add that I think they also use umbilical cord blood which also can change your blood group into that of the donor. It's definitely not something that happens often or that you'd want to repeat
...also wanted to say Donors are fabulous!!!!

No, Blood Group does not change at all, it is usually inherited by the parents and then it stays that way.
