Kimball blood drive, May 16

·

Kimball Fire & Rescue will sponsor the American Red Cross Blood Drive from 12-6 p.m. Tuesday, May 16, at St. Anne’s Church.

Every time you donate blood, you help save a person’s life. What bigger difference can you make in a person’s life, than to give them life itself? For donor eligibility questions, including health questions, call (866) 236-3276 and select option #3. You may schedule your appointment on line at redcrossblood.org, at 1-800-Red Cross, contact any fire/rescue member, or call Tom Ehlinger at (320) 250-2411. Please bring Photo ID or Donor Card. The need is constant. The gratification is instant. Give blood.

The need for blood is constant and only volunteer donors can fulfill that need for patients in our community. Nationwide, someone needs a unit of blood every 2 to 3 seconds, and most of us will need blood in our lifetime.

Thank you for supporting the American Red Cross blood program!
