Donors needed! To make an appointment please contact your Blood Drive reps at their schools or they can e-mail me Samitimmy@yahoo.com.

Every 3 seconds someone in this country needs a blood transfusion. Each donation of 1 pint of blood can help save up to 3 people. 40,000 pints of blood are transfused each day in the United States.

Nearly everyone between the ages of 16 (with parent permission) and 75 weighing 110 pounds and in good health can donate.
