Christ the King hosts Red Cross Blood Drive

Christ the King has decided to host a blood drive on Tuesday, January 26^th from 2:00 to 6:00 pm. Ginny Kettling, Parish Nurse will head up the effort and will need plenty of volunteer help. The goal of this year’s drive will be the collection of 25 units of much needed blood for the Red Cross. They tell us that each year the amount of blood donations increases by 2 to 3 percent. But, the demand for blood is climbing at 6 to 8 percent as more and more baby boomers require heart surgery, hip and knee replacements and other medical treatments that often involve transfusions.

 

For the drive, Christ the King will need, Registrars, Donor Room Aids, volunteers to serve refreshments and people to help promote the event. We will be providing sign up sheets in the hallway of the church during the month of January. There are many questions people have about their ability to give blood. Please consider donating, and if you are not sure if you are able, ask Ginny for advice.
