Summer is upon us and it’s a critical time for the Blood Center as many donors are away vacationing. Lets do our part to help fill that void! All donors will receive a Blood Donors Unite T-Shirt and a free COVID-19 antibody test. The Blood Center will be collecting whole blood, double red cells and plasma. There is no deferral period for those who have received COVID vaccinations. Early times fill up quickly, so please sign up as soon as possible using this link

Deferred for low iron? Boost your iron by taking an 18-38 mg iron supplement daily! Or, red meat is a great source, and dark leafy greens (spinach, kale, etc.), poultry, liver, egg yolks and dried beans are good as well. Non-meat sources are best eaten with foods/beverages containing vitamin C (ie: orange juice, broccoli, sweet peppers) to help your body absorb the iron.
