Summer Blood Drives

Community partners brave the moment to keep our blood supply ready for the unexpected.

Summer is normally a challenging time for the blood supply. These challenges have multiplied during this unique time of social distancing, canceled company and school blood drives, and other rapidly changing conditions. Our collective efforts to keep a readily available and prepared community blood supply will be required even more.

You may also call/text 800-366-2834 for an appointment.

If these times/locations 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.)
• In addition to the current social distancing guidelines provided by FDA and the CDC we will also observe any social distancing guidelines established by our host partners:

• Donors may be asked to wear a mask at the drive.
• Ensure you remain at least six feet from other donors.

• Drink plenty of water before and after donating to ensure you are well hydrated and eat a good, healthy meal at least two hours before your donation.
• Before you arrive on the day of your appointment, fill out your donor questionnaire on your own mobile device/desktop with QuickScreen.
• Please do not bring children and/or pets to blood drives as they are not allowed into the donation area.
