TruBank is hosting a local blood drive in partnership with LifeServe Blood Center. Go online to schedule your preferred donation time. You'll also get reminders sent to you and avoid any wait time. Walk-ins will also be welcomed!
Right now, LifeServe has just a 1-2 day supply of type O-negative, O-positive, and A-negative blood. Other blood types are facing a 2-3 day supply. Without increased donations, this level of supply can lead to situations where hospitals may not have enough blood on hand to treat all patients who need it. The summer months are traditionally a slower time for blood donations, so now that everyone is back in school and on a regular schedule, now it the time to donate. Blood cannot be manufactured and has a short shelf life. Thus, the blood supply needs to be continuously replenished. On average, someone needs blood every two seconds. And just one donation can save or impact up to three local lives. LifeServe supplies blood to more than 175 local hospitals, so donating with LifeServe ensures your donation impacts the lives of people right in your community.
LifeServe Blood Center is asking potential Indianola blood donors to give blood during TruBank's blood drive day on Thursday, September 24th. To avoid wait times
