Darke
County Blood Drives in April
Travel Tumbler celebrates real-life heroes
DARKE COUNTY, Ohio – Darke County will celebrate blood donors as
real-life heroes by hosting various community blood drives. Everyone
who registers to donate will receive the “Hero Blood Donor” travel
tumbler from Community Blood Center. Make an appointment online at
www.DonorTime.com or call 1-800-388-GIVE.
The limited edition, insulated travel tumbler is a gift to everyone who
registers to donate with CBC from April 1 through April 27. The tumbler
is matte black with chalk white “Hero” design and CBC blood drop logo.
CBC needs whole blood to sustain the area blood supply and is also
seeking new platelet and plasma donors. Donors now have more
opportunities to donate platelets and plasma at an increasing number of
community blood drives.
Platelets are the cells that control bleeding while plasma is the fluid
that carries nutrients and proteins throughout the body. Both are vital
for the treatment of cancer, trauma, organ transplant, and burn
patients. New platelet donors are in high demand, especially those with
blood types A, AB, or B positive. Find out more at www.GivingBlood.org
or talk to an apheresis specialist at (937) 461-3220.
