United Blood Services is holding a blood drive at the Campbell-Tintah High School in Campbell, Minn., on Friday, Jan. 23 from 2-6 p.m. The blood drive is being sponsored by the Campbell–Tintah National Honor Society. To donate, you must be 16 years old or older, weigh at least 110 pounds and be in good health. Successful donors will receive a free cholesterol screening.
“Communities like Campbell and Tintah are so important to our blood supply and we would like to encourage everyone in the area (not just Campbell and Tintah) to give blood donation a try,” said Stacey Majkrzak, spokesperson for United Blood Services. “The need for blood is ongoing and on behalf of the patients receiving that life-saving blood, we thank you in advance.”
United Blood Services is the sole provider of blood to 73 hospitals in North Dakota, northeast South Dakota and northwest Minnesota. For more information or to schedule an appointment, call the Campbell-Tintah School at 630-5311.
