BLOOD DRIVE

Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood. That’s why St. Andrew Church is on a mission to help save lives by hosting a blood drive on Monday, May 4 from 9:00 AM to 6:30 PM at:

📍 Rose Bank Winery
258 Durham Rd., Newtown

The community is invited to take part in this special event and donate blood for hospital patients in our neighborhoods and across the nation.

The need for blood is constant, but only 3 percent of the U.S. population donates. By rolling up a sleeve, donors can play a critical role in the treatment of accident and burn victims, heart surgery and organ transplant patients, and those receiving treatment for leukemia, cancer or sickle cell disease.

📲 To make an appointment or learn more:
• Download the American Red Cross Blood Donor App
• Visit RedCrossBlood.org
• Call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767)

Completion on the day of the blood drive of a RapidPass® online health history questionnaire (found at RedCrossBlood.org/rapidpass) is encouraged to help speed up the donation process.

🪪 Donor Requirements:
• Bring a blood donor card or driver’s license at check-in
• Must be 17 years of age in most states (16 with parental consent where allowed by state law)
• Weigh at least 110 pounds
• Be in generally good health

High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.

There are 192 appointment slots for the upcoming blood drive, and we hope to fill all of them.

Will you sign up and bring a friend, or two, or three, and make a difference to those in need?

Hope to see you on May 4th.
