Blood donation is essential to area hospitals and blood products are a vital resource for  patients in need of transfusions.

Please help us during this time by making (and keeping) an appointment to #GiveforLife. We are doing our best to accommodate as many donors as possible, but need to allow for social distancing, so only those with appointments will be admitted to the drive.  The day of your appointment you may fill out your donor questionnaire online with CBC QuickScreen.

Make your appointment with the links above or call/text us at 800-366-2834. If these times do not work for you, make your appointment to give at one of our community donor centers.

Tips for ensuring a safe donation:

• Make and keep your appointment. (If you are not feeling healthy and well, please do not attend.)
• Ensure you remain at least 6 feet from other donors.
• Drink plenty of water before and after donating to ensure you’re well hydrated and eat a good, healthy meal at least two hours before your donation.
