Saving Lives Together: Blood Drive Update

Saving lives together as a community we were able to help 123 people! We made our collection goal. We are so pleased with the success of our blood drive!

We partnered with our friends at Uprising Theater to host a blood drive. Coordinated through Vitalant (formerly Life Source), this event was held on September 26th at our Time Gallery location: 1342 N. Milwaukee Ave, 2nd Floor.

When we come together great things can be done.

But its never just one person below is a list of everyone we thank for helping make this a successful blood drive.

THANK YOU TO ALL OF THE DONORS WHO SHOWED UP

Especially to those who faced nerves and fear of donating for the first time! You did it! All the folks who brought their friends and family along and to Maren’s mom for driving an hour and a half from Lee, IL!
