The need for blood does not go away.  By donating 45 minutes of time and one pint of blood, you are impacting the lives of up to THREE patients in need!  All healthy and eligible donors are encouraged to donate blood.  We will be hosting a blood drive on Saturday, February 12th.  This blood drive will provide much needed units of blood for patients in need.

Pre-scheduled appointments are highly recommended and you can do so at the attached link: https://www.redcrossblood.org/give.html/drive-results?zipSponsor=olgh
