Memorial Blood Drive Saturday, April 27, in MVMMS Cafeteria

Poster for blood drive on April 27 from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. in MVMMS Cafeteria

On April 27, 2019, honor those in our community who have lost loved ones by giving blood, the gift of life. The sixteenth annual Memorial Blood Drive “Give Life, Remember Love” will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the Middle School cafeteria.  

Supplies of all blood types are critically low. Cancer patients, accident survivors, and those fighting chronic diseases rely on life-saving blood transfusions. Every donation makes a difference: one pint of blood can save up to three lives. This year, we have set an ambitious target of 100 units. Help us reach our goal!  

The event is sponsored by the middle school and high school PTOs, the Red Cross, and Boston Children’s Hospital. Donors over age 17 are encouraged to make an appointment (parental consent is required for 16 year-olds). For Children’s Hospital, log onto halfpints.childrenshospital.org or call Deb at 781-258-4880. For the Red Cross, log onto redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS. Walk-ins are welcome. Positive ID is required to make a donation. Please join us!
