Urgent Call For Blood Donors
August 27, 2012
The Northwest Florida Blood Center has issued a call for residents to donate blood today before Isaac moves closer to the coast.
All blood centers are in operations and the Blood Center is asking all eligible donors to stop in at a branch location and donate today while weather conditions are still favorable in our area.
“Blood centers have had to cease operations in most of South Florida due to Isaac’s impact and it is highly likely Isaac will impact collections in Northwest Florida as the storm moves closer. The time to donate is now,” said Betty Roberts, spokesperson for the Northwest Florida Blood Center. “All blood types are urgently needed especially Rh negative blood types and platelets. Any person who is eligible to donate is encouraged to do so now, before the storm.”
In Escambia County, donations can be made at:
- Main Center, 1999 East 9 Mile Road (just east of Target).
- 9th Avenue Center, 2209 North 9th Avenue.
