Thanks to J.P. Licks, donors who give blood or platelets in July - either at the Kraft Family Blood Donor Center, located at 35 Binney Street in Boston, or on the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute/Brigham and Women's Hospital Blood Mobile during select blood drives - will receive a coupon for a free ice cream cone!
Because so many people are on vacation, the summer is a tough time for ensuring an adequate blood supply for all of the Dana-Farber and Brigham and Women's patients who need transfusions. By scheduling your donation in July, you'll be able to enjoy a tasty treat...and know you're making a life-saving difference.
Please schedule your appointment today by emailing BloodDonor@partners.org with the subject heading "Yes, I Cone!" and two preferred donation times in July. If you have questions about your eligibility to donate or about the donation process, please call the Kraft Family Blood Donor Center at 617-632-3206. Even if you can't come into the city to donate, you're welcome to give blood on our Blood Mobile, which travels to locations throughout greater Boston. To view a listing of our upcoming mobile blood drives, please visit us online at www.dana-farber.org/blooddonation.
