Give the lifesaving gift of blood at the Shelburne community blood drive sponsored by St. Catherine of Siena Parish.
When: Tuesday, March 25th from 12 pm to 5 pm
Where: St. Catherine of Siena Parish Hall, 72 Church Street, Shelburne
During the month of March, the Red Cross will expand its health offerings to include hemoglobin A1C screening for all donors who make a successful blood, platelets or plasma donation. What is the A1C test? The A1C screening test is commonly used to screen for prediabetes and diabetes. It measures an individual's average blood sugar level over the past three months and does not require fasting.
Donors will also receive a $10 gift card to Amazon as a thank you from the Red Cross.
To give, please call 1-800-733-2767 or visit http://RedCrossBlood.org and enter Shelburne to schedule an appointment. Appointments are strongly recommended as walks-ins cannot always be accommodated.
Help more patients. If you are an eligible type O, B - or A - donor, consider making a Power Red donation. If you meet certain criteria, Power Red allows you to safely donate two units of red cells during one appointment as an automated donation process. It is as safe as whole blood donation.
Streamline your donation experience and save up to 15 minutes by visiting http://RedCrossBlood.org/RapidPass to complete your pre-donation reading and health history questions on the day of your appointment.
St. Catherine's is committed to strengthening our community and helping meet hospital and patient needs through blood donations. This blood drive is our way of giving neighbors an opportunity to help save lives. Every 2 seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood. Thank you for helping meet this need. Please contact Laureen with any questions at Lmathon104@gmail.com.
