BLOOD DONATIONS NEEDED

Sisters:

According to the American Red Cross, someone in our area needs a transfusion every 7 minutes. Normally, they have 600 units on hand to send to hospitals; currently they have 30. We need blood donors!

The blood drive associated with the Emergency Preparedness Fair will take place at the Stake Center on Friday, August 24th from 11:30 am until 7 pm, and on Saturday, August 25th from 9 am until 3 pm.

To sign up to donate blood, go to www.redcrossblood.org
In the upper right hand corner is a blue box which read "Make a blood donation appointment". Clicking on that box takes you to a page which reads "Find a Donation Opportunity". In the Sponsor code box, type ldsbentonville then click Find. This takes you to the page with the Emergency Preparedness Fair blood drives. (The Red Cross separates Friday and Saturday into two drives.) Click on "Click Here to Schedule an Appointment" for whichever day you desire. This takes you to the donor sign in page. If you haven't signed up to give blood since last year, you need to click on the Register Now button and fill out that form. Otherwise type in your user id and password. Once you've logged in, you'll be sent to the donor sign up page and can click on an available time.

Donating one unit of blood saves three lives!
