Don’t Tell Dracula – Twin Falls Blood Drive Is Next Week

The need for blood is an ongoing problem at hospitals. That is why it is so important and often talked about. There seems to be a blood drive going on any given day, yet the need remains high. You have a chance to donate your blood on Monday October 15 through Wednesday the 17th at the Church of the Ascension on Eastland in Twin Falls.

This Halloween, Count Dracula is not the only one who needs your blood.  The American Red Cross wants you too! Regular blood donations are needed to maintain a safe and adequate blood supply for patients in our local hospitals. Give Count Dracula the boot and instead help make a difference to someone in need!
