United Blood Services will be holding several blood drives over the next 30 days to give area residents a chance to donate.

There is always a need for blood and only volunteer donors can fulfill that need for patients in the community.  Nationwide, someone needs a unit of blood every 2 to 3 seconds and most people will need donated blood sometime in their lives.

Several appointments are available at local drives to be held within the next month.  Make an online appointment today by clicking the link of the blood drive location you wish to attend or visit http://www.unitedbloodservices.org/ for more information.
