AREA BLOOD DRIVE SCHEDULED
In an effort to meet our community's
growing need for blood, Hawthorne-Fortitude Lodge is
sponsoring a blood drive on Tuesday
June 10th, 2008 at 24 North Franklin Turnpike, Ramsey, from 3:30 pm
to 8:00 pm.
The drive is open to the entire
community.
"Helping Others In The Community Is What It's All About"
"It is very important to to give blood
to help our fellow neighbor", stated Cory Sigler, Blood Drive Chairperson.
"Currently donations are down 15% as compared to last year, so every
donation counts and we need your help". As we approach the
holiday season and people are caught up in the hustle and bustle
of the season, donations drop dramatically. Free cholesterol
test will be given. Please come to our drive
on Tuesday, June 10th from
3:30 PM to 8:00 PM. Your donation could save someone's
life, and there is no better gift you could ever give, especially
at this time of year."
Almost anyone can be a lifesaving
hero. Blood donors must be at least age 17, weigh a minimum of
110 pounds and be in good general health. The blood donation process
takes less than an hour and includes a free mini medical exam (temperature,
iron count, pulse and blood pressure). Photo or signature ID is
required and knowledge of Social Security Number.
To make a convenient donation
appointment, call 1-800-933-BLOOD. Walk-in donors are also welcome.
The blood drive is administered
by the New Jersey Blood Services, one of five regions of New York Blood
Center , the nation's largest independent blood collection and distribution
organization. New Jersey Blood Services aims to distribute 90,000
pints of blood annually for patients in 60 New Jersey hospitals
