State Representative Kevin Schmidt is organizing a blood drive in collaboration with ImpactLife. The event is scheduled for Wednesday, July 23, from 3-6 pm at the O’Fallon Township Lot, located at 801 E. State St. in O’Fallon.
“Did you know that every two seconds someone in the U.S. needs blood and/or platelets?” Rep. Schmidt said. “The need for blood donations is very real. Approximately 29,000 units of red blood cells are needed every single day in the U.S. I’d love to see you at our blood drive. Together, we can make a difference and save lives.”
While walk-ins are welcome, making an appointment is recommended to reduce wait times. Appointments can be made at https://login.bloodcenter.org/donor/schedules/drive_schedule/140384
