Blood Donor Sunday

Our next Blood Donor Sunday will be held September 24th, 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. in the gym. Sign-up sheets will be located in the foyer and the narthex. If you would prefer a special time please sign up either at the church or online at www.giveblood.org and pick Trinity’s drive to set an appointment. While scheduling an appointment ahead of time gives us an estimate of how many donors to expect and the Blood Center sends out the appropriate number of workers; an added bonus is we take scheduled appointments prior to walk-ups.

We look forward to a very successful drive this winter. Double red cell and combination whole blood and plasma machines will be available for those wishing to donate that way. Both count for two donations.

REMINDER!! The minimum donor age requirement to give blood is 16 years old with a parent’s permission. Weight must be 122 lbs. (still 110 lbs. for 17 and older) and in general good health.

REMEMBER: one unit of blood can save as many as three lives as it is broken down into three components – red blood cells, platelets and plasma.

May our Lord keep you healthy so you can continue to contribute the gift of life! Full Calendar
