EVERY DROP COUNTS BLOOD DRIVES

DARKE COUNTY, OH — (September 29, 2010) Community Blood Center (CBC) “Blood Donor Every Blood Drop Counts” blood drives offer donors the opportunity to donate blood and make a difference in someone’s life. Every drop does count when you donate, and when you donate one pint of blood you can help to save up to three lives!

Everyone who registers to donate during “Blood Donor Every Drop Counts” October 3-15 will receive a free stoneware mug.

Scheduling your appointment is easy. Go on line to www.donortime.com to schedule your own appointment. You can also contact Dana Puterbaugh, Darke County - Account Representative @ 937-997-2199 / dputerbaugh@cbccts.org to schedule your appointment.

Please remember that appointments have priority and Walk –Ins are always welcome as the schedule permits. This just means that if you walk in and all appointments are filled at the time you come to the blood drive we will let you know when the next available appointment is and you have the choice to either wait or come back at the time that is available.



Please always allow 45 minutes to 1 hour to get through the entire process, even if you have an appointment.
