STURDY MEMORIAL HOSPITAL TO HOLD BLOOD DRIVE

COMMUNITY ANNOUNCEMENT
Sturdy Memorial will be holding a Blood Drive in partnership with the Rhode Island Blood Center on Thursday, December 5 from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. in the Hospital Auditorium. Each donation you make can treat up to three people and will help alleviate the region’s seasonal blood shortage. Donating regularly is something we can do to ensure blood is always available the instant it is needed, and for people who have cancer, blood disorders, sickle cell anemia, and other illnesses, as well as those who need regular blood transfusions to live.

All donors will receive refreshments and be entered in a raffle. To schedule an appointment for the Sturdy Memorial Blood Drive, call 508-236-8555 or visit www.sturdymemorial.org/events_blooddrives.html. Sturdy Memorial is committed to bringing in at least 55 donors for the Blood Drive. Donors need to be at least 17 years of age and at least 110 pounds, and the process takes approximately one hour.
