Canadian Blood Services Holding Summer Blood Drive This Thursday


The annual Summer Blood Drive is happening this Thursday in St. John’s.

Canadian Blood Services has teamed up with VOCM again this year to encourage people to donate blood.

Blood donation has dipped since the pandemic, but the need has been the same.

If you’d like to give blood and support the Summer Blood Drive, you can book an appointment by calling 1-888-2-DONATE or online to donate this Thursday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
