Fact!

How to Donate Blood or Schedule a Blood Mobile
A pint of blood can save three lives! Blood is essential to life. No artificial substitutes can replace the functions of human blood. And when patients need blood, they depend on your donation. In fact, all of the blood donated through the Red Cross comes f rom volunteers - caring people like you. Remember that blood is needed all the time - not just when someone you know gets hurt or sick. Patients all over the country need blood every minute of every day. Every minute, patients use more than 36 pints of blood or blood products. That adds up to 53,000 pints of blood needed every day to save lives.

Virtually any healthy person can donate blood. There are very few restrictions: Your health must be good. You must weigh at least 110 pounds. And you must be more than 17 years old. Giving blood is simple and safe. Trained Red Cross health care specialists will help you through the donation process. All in all, it takes about 45 minutes.

The Chapter hosts Blood drives at the Chapter house (911 Stowell Street, Elmira) every other Thursday. The times alternate between  early drives (10:30am-4:30pm) and late drives (1:00pm-7:00pm). To sign up to give blood at this or any other blood drive, you may call 734-3317 or 1-800-GIVE LIFE. To arrange a blood drive, call the same number and indicate that you would like to arrange a blood drive.
