County Hosts Community Blood Drive Dec. 2

 

By Press Release

COURT HOUSE — The Cape May County Department of Health will host an American Red Cross blood drive open to the public on Dec. 2, 2013. The community blood drive will take place from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. at Crest Haven Nursing and Rehabilitation Center located at 12 Moore Road, in the Crest Haven Complex (Exit 11 off the Garden State Parkway).
The American Red Cross continues its vital work of helping people devastated by natural disasters. As a result, blood supplies are alarmingly low. Every minute of every day someone needs blood.
“Each donation can help save up to three lives and that blood can only come from a volunteer donor – a person like you who makes the choice to donate,” said Cape May County Health Officer Kevin Thomas.
Twice a year the county holds a blood drive for employees, their families and friends and encourages members of the public to donate blood as well. County employees donate on average 120 pints each year.
Walk-ins are welcome but appointments are preferred. To schedule an appointment log onto www.redcrossblood.org, call Judy Startare at 609-465-1206 or email starta@co.cape-may.nj.us
