Nationwide, someone needs a unit of blood every 2 to 3 seconds and most of us will need blood in our lifetime. Please join our lifesaving mission and schedule an appointment today!</blockquote>
Please consider making a donation … and feel free to spread the word. It’s not every day that we do something that has such a lifesaving impact. With your help, we can do just that!
