Giving Blood is a Slam Dunk during National Blood Donor Month

Memorial Blood Centers is partnering with the Minnesota Timberwolves to show appreciation to blood donors during Jan., National Blood Donor Month. Donors who present to donate from Jan. 1-31, will receive a voucher redeemable for two Minnesota Timberwolves tickets. The need for blood is constant, every two seconds someone needs blood, and patients in local hospitals depend on Memorial Blood Centers to be there with the blood they need to survive. Only volunteer donors can help ensure blood is available. Riverplace, 43 Main St., Suite 232 Mpls, will be hosting a blood drive, Thursday, Jan. 12, 9:30 a.m.-1 p.m. To see the entire location list and to schedule your life-saving donation today visit MBC.ORG, or call 1-888-GIVE-BLD (1-888-448-3253).
