Inventory Update: Help Stop Summer ShortagesYour new role starts now! After all you’ve done (and continue to do) as a hometown hero, your role as an interim recruiter has begun! Summer is here, and we’re already seeing those tell-tale slow days and low turnout. Help stop summertime blood shortages by asking your eligible friends, family, co-workers, etc. to donate with you this summer! Know of a church, business or organization that may be interested in hosting a blood drive? Visit our website to find the contact information for the mobile drive coordinator in your area.
