Bloodmobile will be at Walmart of Union today from 11-7

The community continues to experience a severe blood shortage that could last for several weeks without immediate action. Hospital partners are seeing a higher need for blood with the number of previously deferred surgeries increasing and trauma cases climbing to historical highs, as well. Each donation makes a difference, as it can be responsible for saving up to three lives. The Blood Connection will be at Walmart today from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. All donors will receive a $20 eGift card. Regular donations are needed to shore up the blood supply in the community.
