Sandalfoot Publix Blood Drive
OneBlood will be holding a blood drive at the Sandalfoot Publix on Sunday, July 6th, from 2-7 pm. Based on past experience, it will probably be in a bloodmobile in the parking lot.
Donors will receive TWO FREE MOVIE TICKETS, a wellness checkup including blood pressure, temperature, iron count and cholesterol screening.
Donated blood can give patients in need more time with loved ones. Blood can be used to treat cancer patients, trauma victims, organ transplant recipients, premature babies, sickle cell disease patients and more. In fact, about every two seconds a patient in the US needs a blood transfusion. 38% of the U.S. population is eligible to donate, however only 5% do on a yearly basis.
I personally have donated blood through OneBlood several times, including at the blood drives like this one. The staff are friendly and professional. I’ve always felt they treat me well.
