LifeServe Blood Center is asking community members to book an appointment to give blood at an upcoming area blood drive.
A blood drive will be held Tuesday, Sept. 9, from 12:30 to 5:30 pm at Trinity Lutheran Church, 801 W. Lincoln Way, in Jefferson.
It’s important that eligible blood donors continue to donate regularly to ensure the health of the community. There is no substitute for human blood.
To help ensure the safety of blood donors and team members during this COVID-19 pandemic, LifeServe is enforcing several precautionary measures. Appointments are required. Donors who do not have an appointment will not be able to give blood.
Blood donors should pre-screen themselves for fever prior to appointments. Only donors with temperatures under 99.5 will be allowed to donate.
Blood donors are required to wear a mask for the duration of their appointment. Donors who do not have masks will be provided with one.
Appointments to donate blood can be made online at at lifeserve bloodcenter.org or by calling 800-287-4903.
