The Community Blood Bank will be holding a blood drive from noon to 5 p.m. Monday at St. Bernard Church in Bradford.

Appointments may be made by contacting Shari at 814-688-3696 by call or text. Appointments are encouraged to help adhere to social distancing protocols.

The Community Blood Bank needs blood donations from local blood donors now to help boost the blood supply for our community. The current blood supply levels are critically low, all blood types are needed and can only be replenished with donations from volunteer blood donors. The need for blood never stops and there is no substitute for blood when it is needed for a patient.

Donors in April are automatically entered into a weekly drawing for a $100 Home Improvement Store gift card. Donors can also receive a Proud Blood Donor yard sign to show their support and help encourage new donors.
