B’nai Israel is sponsoring a Blood Drive on Monday, August 1st from 3 – 9 pm. Please sign up for a time that’s convenient for you. There is always a shortage of blood during the summer months and the blood banks are always in dire need of donors. Your donation now is critically important. Please consider donating if you are at least 16 yrears old and have not given blood within the last 56 days. There are pamphlets available to answer any questions or concerns you might have. The rules have changed over the years, so what might have been a reason not go give blood in the past, may no longer apply. The pamphet covers temporary reasons why you are ineligible to give blood along with length of time before you can again donate, as well as permanent reasons.
Did you know that one in three people will need blood sometime during their lives?; close to 2,000 men, women and children in our community, including cancer, transplant and surgery patients, trauma victims, newborn babies and many others need blood transfusion each day? that blood lasts only 42 days?
