Calling all blood types! Please come to our community blood drive and give blood at our drive in Emerson Suites on July 18 from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Our community blood supply is at critical levels for all blood types.
Your community blood supply is rapidly being depleted; the Red Cross needs your lifesaving donations now. The recent flooding in our home state has caused many drives to be canceled. The Red Cross and our community need your donation. Please call 274-3371 or email csmith@ithaca.edu to schedule your appointment time now.
You are Eligible to Donate If You Meet the Following Criteria:
• Are at least 17 yrs old
• Weight at least 110 pounds
• Have not donated within the last 56 days
• Have not traveled abroad since 1980 for more then 3
cumulative months in Great Britain or 6 months cumulative in
Europe.
I am also looking for help to staff the blood drive. If you have an hour to spare to make this a successful drive please call 274-3371 or email csmith@ithaca.edu with your availability.
On behalf of all patients in the Southern Tier, thank you in advance for your goodwill and generosity.
TIPS FOR A SUCCESSFUL DONATION:
To improve your donation experience: Be sure to eat well the day of
donation, drink plenty of fluids and get a good night's sleep!
