Summertime is a great season for vacations, but it is a challenging time for regional blood banks, which are currently facing a severe shortage of blood and blood products.
Someone you know or love may need a transfusion, and we can all do our part to ensure that what they need is available. Whether you participate in our upcoming drive or donate through another organization, please schedule your donation today.
