La Palma Intercommunity Hospital will be hosting a blood drive in their front parking lot located at 7901 Walker St. on January 20 from 7:30 AM to 1:45 PM.
The blood drive is in collaboration with the American Red Cross and the Red Cross blood Mobile will be facilitating the event
“We are doing something a little different this year to increase participation in the blood drive,” said Rachel Hogue Marketing Director at La Palma Intercommunity Hospital, “all participants in the blood drive receive a discounted ticket offer to either an Anaheim Ducks home game at the Honda Center in Anaheim or a LA Kings home game at Staples Center.”
Walk-ups will be accepted but participants are urged to schedule appointments to the blood drive.
“There is always an urgent need for all types of blood and we encourage all residents of La Palma and surrounding communities to participate and give blood,” said Virg Narbutas CEO of LPIH.
Those interested can call Frances at (714)-670-6025 or they can sign up online at RedCrossBlood.org using the sponsor code lpih.
