Each year, 4.5 million Americans receive blood transfusions, and every day, 36,000 units of blood are needed. Every donation of blood helps save lives. The Union College PA Program is hosting a blood drive for the American Red Cross Blood in the atrium of the Don Love Building on Tuesday, January 28 from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Please make an appointment to donate now. Visit redcrossblood.org and type “Union College” into the “Make Your Appointment” bar. The drive is open to all members of the community, not just Union’s campus family.

If you can not give blood during this drive, consider donating through one of the other Red Cross drives in the area or at any of the Nebraska Community Blood Bank locations in Lincoln.
