According to our friends at Heartland Blood Bank,
SOMEONE NEEDS BLOOD EVERY THREE SECONDS.
Blood is something most of us don't have to worry if we have enough of;
we're not using it for credit card debt or saving it for retirement.
Donating blood is easy and it saves lives.
Please come to our blood drive Saturday, August 9 in the gym.
We will have appointment times available in the lobby. Sign up today!
