To support the efforts of the American Red, Cross, the Department of Public Health and Department of Health Services will host a blood drive on Wednesday, March 9th  from 9:30 am- 4:00 pm.

This blood drive comes at a critical time, as the Red Cross has seen a decline in blood donations due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Only about three percent of the U.S. population gives blood, which means there is a heavy reliance on repeat donors to maintain a sufficient blood supply.

To schedule an appointment to donate, download the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit redcrossblood.org and enter sponsor code: 313Figueroa  or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767)
