WE'RE GOING TO TRY THIS AGAIN!

UNFORTUNATELY THE FIRST ATTEMPT AT OUR WINTER HOLIDAY BLOOD DRIVE WAS SIDELINED BECAUSE OF SNOW.

FOR THIS ATTEMPT, OUR WINTER BLOOD DRIVE is set for SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 1ST from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm at the Daniel O'Brien VFW Hall, 32 Gleneida Ave (Rt.52), Carmel, NY 10512. Please note the time change.

BECAUSE OF THE CHALLENGING WINTER WEATHER AND FLU OUTBREAK, THE BLOOD SUPPLY IS AT AN ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL LEVEL.

For this critical drive we once again encourage donors to make an appointment.

But we’re happy to announce, just in time for the VALENTINE’S DAY, you have a choice of a holiday beanie or the highly acclaimed NY Blood Center holiday socks! 

Courtesy of Fiddler's Green Pub, the PINT for a PINT is back. For your donation of a PINT, you will receive a coupon for a PINT of fermented draft beverage, or a pint of carbonated sugar water. 

We hope you can once again join our members of the Knights of Columbus 6318, along with the Driscoll Lodge of the Fraternal Order of Police, local FDNY members and Guardian Revival on SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 1ST from 10:00am till 4:00pm in this absolutely critical blood drive.
