Now with COVID hospitalizations up in our area it's a great time to remind you that blood donations are desperately needed. LifeShare Blood Center is giving some great incentives to make a blood donation.

Tomorrow afternoon a very special blood drive will take place. It is the LifeShare Blood Centers Annual blood drive 'Holiday Inn Express Nicole's November' that is held in memory of one of their former employees.

Did you know that when you donate blood that one donation can help up to 3 people? When you donate you could be saving the life of someone who has been in a serious accident, someone who needs surgery because of heart problems, cancer patients and even babies and pregnant women. Being able to help like that, why wouldn't you? Be sure to stop by any of the LifeShare Blood Drives going on this month

LifeShare Blood Center is temporarily continuing the antibodies testing for SARS-CoV-2 the virus that causes COVID -19 for all blood donors. The testing is going on now until Friday, July 31st. The test can indicate whether someone has been exposed to COVID-19.

We have a critically low supply of blood in our area and nationwide. If you can donate blood please do! There are two blood drives going on today in the Atlanta Texas area.

It's Valentine's Day and here's a way to show your love in the best way possible. Give the gift of life. There is a serious blood shortage in our area and it's up to us to step up to the plate and donate blood.

Blood supplies are low during the Christmas season because everyone is busy shopping and wrapping presents, attending company Christmas parties visiting with friends and getting ready for family gatherings. That's why it is so important to take a few minutes and donate blood this time of year.

As we get closer to the holidays and our schedules get busier and busier and our blood supply at LifeShare Blood Center goes down. Right now there is less than a day of Type O in reserve. But all blood types are needed. Be sure to stop by one of these blood drives in our area over the next couple of weeks.

Lifeshare Blood Center lets us know from time to time where they're going to be for blood drives, here are a few locations over the next few days:

So, could you use some Fair and Rodeo Tickets? How about Fun Passes, VIP Concert Meet and Greet Passes for Mark Wills? Could you spare a little blood? Then we've got your hookup this Saturday at the Four States Fairgrounds Ag Learning Center. It's time for the Four States Fair Blood Drive!

Last weekend's tragedies in El Paso and in Dayton are a big reminder that it is important to keep our blood banks at or near full capacity level. Donating blood is easy and one donation can help save the lives of 3 people.

With severe weather planning to impact the region this weekend, LifeShare Blood Center is asking for blood donors to give blood ahead of the storm.
