Chatham Presbyterian Church to Host Blood Drive on March 17
In Partnership with American Red Cross
Help save a life by donating blood. The Presbyterian Church of Chatham Township, in partnership with the American Red Cross, will hold a community blood drive on Sunday, March 17 from 10:30 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. at the church at 240 Southern Boulevard.
Anyone age 17 to 76 in good health with some form of identification can donate blood. Donors age 16 can donate with parental permission after proper forms are completed. Most donations take about an hour, so book your appointment, roll up your sleeve and become a part of the lifesaving mission of the Red Cross. Each pint of blood collected can help save up to three lives and will touch the lives of so many more. If you are healthy and eligible, please come out to donate.
Reservations are requested. To schedule an appointment, register at www.pcct-nj.org/events/blood-drive. To check your eligibility to give blood, visit the American Red Cross website at www.redcrossblood.org .
