The May blood drive was a wonderful success. We collected 82 units of blood! Let’s do it again on Saturday, July 20 at the MountainView Ballroom from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. We have 43 people signed up already. We have lots of openings left which means you can make your appointment now and get the time you want. The Red Cross has been staffing us very well and as a result there is very little wait time in chairs. Come on down and save a life.
As a blood donor, you do something extraordinary with each donation. You give families hope. Y ou give patients courage. And you give those who need it most life. Donors like you make all the difference. That is why your donation for this drive is more important than ever.
The need for blood is constant and only volunteer donors can fulfill that need for patients in our community. Nationwide, someone needs a unit of blood every two to three seconds and most of us will need blood in our lifetime. To schedule your appointment please go to redcrossblood.org or call 800-733-2767.
Also, you can start the donation process before leaving home by completing Rapid Pass online pre-donation and health history questionnaire from your mobile device or Blood Donor App on the day of your appointment. You can save up to 15 minutes. Learn more at redcrossblood.org/Rapid Pass.
Tom and I recently took over coordinating the Blood Drive here in SaddleBrooke and are looking forward to meeting you and thanking you for your donation! If we can answer any questions for you, give us a call at (267) 394-2027 (Leslie) or (267) 394-2000 (Tom).
