DONATE BLOOD
Blood Drive
There is a great need for blood donations as hospitals continue to be overwhelmed across the state.
Where: Christ Lutheran, Gymnasium
Sign up HERE for a time to donate blood. If you've never donated blood, consider being a first-time donor. Check out the information HERE on what to expect throughout the blood donation process.
Schedule an Appointment
If you are healthy and able to donate blood, schedule your appointment at your local facility. There are approximately 600 blood drives that have been canceled due to gathering limitations, which means 18,000 units will not be received.
