Community Blood Drive December 5th, 2013 - Sign Up Today!

This Thanksgiving, you can give a hospital patient a reason to be thankful -- by donating blood. A single blood donation can help save up to three lives and give patients in need another opportunity to celebrate holidays with their loved ones.

If you have O Negative blood, your donation is needed for hospital emergency departments and transport operations like Flight for Life. Although all types are needed at this time, the supply of O Negative blood is always limited, and your participation at our upcoming drive is encouraged.

While the need for blood is ongoing, the supply isn’t – especially around the holidays. In the spirit of the season, give thanks and give hope to someone in need this Thanksgiving by donating blood at our upcoming blood drive.
