Blood Center Needs Memorial Day Weekend Donations
May 24, 2014
It may be Memorial Day weekend, but the need for blood donations never stops.
lood transfusions are crucial to the health and well-being of our community. That’s why OneBlood is inviting any eligible blood donor to give during a special Memorial Day blood drive at donor center locations only. Blood donors who donate through Monday at a OneBlood Donor Center location only will receive a limited edition summer t-shirt and their choice of a $10 eGift card from the OneBlood donor rewards store.
Donations can be made at the Nine Mile Donor Center at 1999 East Nine Mile Road (just east of Target) 8 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. on Monday.
There are eight different blood types and each one holds a unique power to save lives. The OneBlood Target Your Type program gives donors the ability to learn the power of their blood type and how to donate the specific components of their blood that are most needed by area hospitals.
Generally healthy people age 16 or older who weigh at least 110 pounds can donate blood.
