HSP FALL BLOOD DRIVE SET FOR SEPTEMBER 26

Our fall blood drive will be Thursday, September 26th, 1:00 to 6:00 p.m. Sign up to give a blood donation at https://www.redcrossblood.org. The demand for Red Cross blood services remains high. Blood is essential to help patients survive surgeries, cancer treatment, chronic illnesses, and traumatic injuries. While the need is constant, a very small percentage of age-eligible people donate blood yearly. Here's our chance to help the American Red Cross make sure that supply meets demand.

How can you participate?

• Roll up your sleeve and donate. You can sign up for an appointment to donate blood at www.redcrossblood.org or by contacting Audrey Murray at 612-968-2108 or . The basic requirements to donate are:
  • You must be in good health and feeling well.
  • You must weigh at least 110 pounds.
  • If you are not yet 18 years old you must have a consent form signed by your parent or guardian.
• While you're signing yourself up, invite a family member or friend to join you. Share this lifesaving gift together.
• Help at the blood drive. We need volunteers to help register donors and to serve refreshments. We need people to bring those refreshments, too. Please contact Audrey to sign up.

We look forward to seeing you at the Holy Spirit Parish Blood Drive.
