The community is invited to donate blood at the Celebrate Freedom Blood Drive on Friday, July 3 from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the Southwest Chapter office located at 29 South Stockwell Road in Evansville.

The summer months can be a challenging time to collect blood donations, as many donors are busy with travel plans and seasonal events. In addition, the increased risk of severe weather can quickly disrupt blood-collection efforts. Donors of all blood types are encouraged to make an appointment to give blood to help ensure patients never have to wait for vital care.
