Blood Drive this Friday
Carter BloodCare is holding on strong to maintain a safe supply during the holiday season. However, with high schools out and donors traveling, it will be difficult to maintain the supply if we do not have donors come to give these next couple of weeks. Please consider stopping by the Carter BloodCare bus to donate blood in the front hospital parking lot. You may drop by the blood donation bus on December 23rd from 9am to 2pm. To schedule an appointment, call 800-366-2834 or go to https://ww2.greatpartners.org/donor/schedules/drive_schedule/136519. Donors will receive a fleece blanket while supplies last.
