“I want to thank you for donating blood. You absolutely saved my life. I needed a transfusion during my C-section that also saved my baby’s life. If I hadn’t had your blood, I would have died and never gotten to experience my son. Although I don’t know you, I send my love to you!!!”
Summer is a difficult time to collect blood. High school blood drives are closed. Donors are on vacation or out of their regular routines. Meanwhile, people are more active in summer and consequently there are more accidents. So, the demand for blood increases in summer, at a time when blood donations decrease.
To help maintain a plentiful blood supply this summer season, Our Lady of Guadalupe will continue to host summer blood drives on Mon Aug 5, Tues Aug 6 & Wed Aug 7. Let’s stock up on blood supplies for our community! Please sign up and reserve your spot to give blood!
Appointments are required. If you need help booking your appointment, please contact the Bloodworks Northwest DONOR CARE TEAM at 1-800-398-7888 or e-mail [email protected]
Save time at the blood drive by using quick pass at home, the morning of the drive! Just bring the QR code with you to the drive (QR code is provided after you answer the questions)
