Critical need for blood supplies

The area’s blood center worries that any time a winter weather event takes grip, the loss of a full day of blood donations eats away at inventory levels.  According to the Blood Connection, this makes the current, un-relenting critical need even worse.  The low blood supply is affecting local hospital orders, which means patients are also affected.  If your business, church, or school would be willing to host a blood drive, call 864/255-5003.
