As the temperatures rise and the days stretch longer, so does the need for lifesaving blood donations. In the heart of America, local LifeServe communities know there’s nothing truer to Midwestern character than being a blood donor. At LifeServe Blood Center, lifesaving is local and every donation has the potential to impact patients in your community. The demand for blood surges during the summer months, fueled by increased accidents, surgeries, and medical emergencies. This June, LifeServe is inviting community members to make a difference at home in the heart of America. It’s no secret that Midwesterners understand the importance of supporting one another in their community. You can donate blood with LifeServe and show off what it truly means to be a Midwesterner. Your blood donation isn’t just a selfless act, it's an expression of the compassion, resilience, and support that define the heart of America. Plus you can earn a cool Midwestern tee at the online store! LifeServe Blood Center held a blood drive in Avon on Tuesday, July 23, and had a GREAT turnout! 14 donors registered to donate and 14 units of life saving blood were collected! Thank you to every donor who participated in the drive and helped to boost the LOCAL blood supply! The units donated at the blood drive can help save up to 42 lives! We also celebrate the following donor(s) who hit milestones with their most recent donation: 02 GALLONEER APRIL POWERS 12 GALLONEER DENNIS DODGE Special thanks to Dave and Sandy Brandt for coordinating the blood drive. Additional gratitude to the Avon Zion Lutheran Church for the use of the site. We could not help patients in our 160+ hospitals, without communities like Avon and your amazing volunteers and donors!
