Let's reach 40 units this time

To The Eagle:

It is time again for our local Wahkiakum County American Red Cross Blood Drive. It will be held at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, 549 SR 409, Puget Island, on Tuesday, August 2 from 1 to 6 p.m.

I want to express my gratitude to all who donated at our last drive. We surpassed our goal of 24 units with a collection of 31 units. That is the second best result in the past 10 years. Way to go Wahkiakum! Let’s amaze them again with another great turnout. What do you think; can we do 40? Yes, we can.

To schedule an appointment please call me at 795-8821, visit http://www.redcrossblood.org and enter sponsor code: wahkiakum, or download the Blood Donor App redcrossblood.org.

To encourage donations during these critical summer months all presenting donors will receive a $5 Amazon gift code via email. Our Saviour’s is baking us cookies and by giving an hour of our time we can help patients in life-threatening situations.
