Make a date to save some lives

30 Jul

blood dropThe American Red Cross has several blood drives coming up here in Webster and nearby towns in the next few weeks, and I encourage everyone to try to carve out an hour of your day to stop by one of them. The need for blood is constant, and every summer that need grows critical.

Here are the details:

  • Thursday Aug. 1, Fairport-Webster Elks Lodge 2396, 1066 Jackson Rd., 3 to 7 p.m.
  • Thursday Aug. 1, Cherry Ridge, 900 Cherry Ridge Blvd. (across from Schroeder H.S.), 1 to 6 p.m.
  • Saturday Aug. 3, YMCA Eastside, 1835 Fairport Nine Mile Pt. Rd., 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
  • Thursday Aug. 8, Webster Knights of Columbus, 70 Barrett Drive, 1 to 7 p.m.
  • Tuesday Aug. 13, St. Martin Lutheran Church, 813 Bay Rd., 1 to 6 p.m.
  • Saturday Aug. 17, Brighton Fire Department, 3100 East Ave., 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Log on to RedCrossBlood.org to make an appointment, which tends to speed things up a bit, or just feel free to pop in when you can. They’ll really appreciate seeing you either way.

And by the way, if you donate between now and Aug. 29, you’ll get a $5 gift card from Amazon via email.
