Green Hills Community hosts a Community Blood Center blood drive from 1:30 to 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 10, in the facility’s Community Center, 6557 S. U.S. Route 68, West Liberty.
Everyone who registers to donate can choose from Community Blood Center’s fall colors of T-shirts from earlier campaigns. Schedule an appointment online at www.donortime.com or call (800) 388-4483.
The CBC is expanding the opportunity to donate platelets and plasma at select community blood drives. Platelets are blood cells that help control bleeding. Plasma is the fluid component that helps maintain blood pressure. Both are vital to the treatment of cancer, organ transplant, burn and trauma patients.
New platelet donors are in high demand, especially those with blood types A, AB, or B-positive. Find out more at www.GivingBlood.org or talk to an apheresis specialist at (937) 461-3220.
