Why are there summer blood shortages? The need for blood locally remains constant, and vacations and summer schedules generally result in diminished donations in the summer. Community donor volunteers are needed to combat summer blood shortages

Donors are encouraged to eat a meal prior to giving blood and drink plenty of water. Photo ID is required at donation time.
