Emergency Summer Blood Drive in Pleasantville

Summer Blood Drive in Central Westchester

(Pleasantville) 

Blood

donations fall off dramatically during the summer when vacations and travel

occupy more of everyone’s time. The need for blood, however, does not decline

and supplies rapidly dwindle.  To help

correct shortages that invariably occur, the Pleasantville Volunteer Fire

Department and Volunteer Ambulance

Corps will be hosting a special Summer Blood Drive at the Pleasantville

Fire House, 75 Washington Ave, on Wednesday, August 21 from

2:30 pm - 8:30 pm.  Since it is also

difficult to organize community drives during the summer, blood donors from all

towns are welcome to come to lend their help. All donors will be entered into a

raffle to receive two tickets to the 2014 Super Bowl. 

For

information, to sign up or to volunteer, call (914) 747-2408 or send an email

to angela.usobiaga@verizon.net

.  Although it is helpful to let the

organizers know in advance that you plan to come, walk-ins are always

accepted.
