Event Details

It’s not too late to be a part of something big this summer! As we flip the calendar to August, there’s no time to wait − patients are trusting blood and platelet donors to ensure lifesaving care is ready as soon as it’s needed.

The library is proud to host an American Red Cross blood drive on Wednesday, August 17. Please read the following important information:

  • Appointments preferred; walk-ins welcome! For an appointment call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or visit RedCrossBlood.org
  • Bring a photo ID or your blood donor card, or two other forms of ID.
  • Eat a healthy meal and drink an extra 16 oz. of water and fluids before the donation. Blood donation typically takes about an hour.
  • You must be at least 17 years old to donate blood with the Red Cross, or 16 years old with parental/guardian consent. Click here for consent form and more information.
  • Please note: per Red Cross policy, masks are required for all who participate in the blood drive.
