March Blood Drive

The American Red Cross is facing a severe blood shortage as requests from hospitals exceed the available supply, drawing down the blood supply by about 35% over the past month. The shortage is especially serious for Type O, A negative, and B negative. Without immediate action, patients face serious risk. Your help is needed right now.

The American Red Cross will be at St. Francis Convent on March 16, 1-7 p.m.; March 17, 12-6 p.m.; and March 18, 8:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Individuals at least 17 years old (16 with parental permission) who meet height and weight requirements (at least 110 pounds based on height) and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. Red Cross donor card or positive ID is required. Please join us to make a donation and encourage your friends to come too!

Appointments can be made by going online to redcrossblood.org or call Sister Julien Dirkes at 320-632-0663.
