Roll Up Your Sleeve And Give Life At Southington Blood Drive

SOUTHINGTON, CT — Folks have the chance Wednesday to join the Southington Fire Department and help save a life.

But unlike firefighters, those being sought don't have to run into a burning building. They just have to roll up a sleeve.

The SFD is hosting an American Red Cross blood drive on Wednesday, Sept. 25, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Southington Fire Department firehouse on 310 N. Main St., Southington.

There, volunteers will be able to give a little bit of themselves and, possibly, give life to someone badly in need of a blood transfusion.

Those who do volunteer will also walk away with more than just the satisfaction of helping their fellow man. They'll leave with a $15 e-gift card from a merchant of their choice.

To make an appointment, visit the Blood Donor App; go online to redcrossblood.org (keyword Southington), or call 1-800-Red Cross.
