Children’s Hospital Mobile Blood Drive At The Grange
Take 45 Minutes to Help Kids in 2024: Children’s Hospital Mobile Blood Drive At The Grange
We all have a busy summer planned. However one event you should make plans for is helping kids in need. This summer, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to help. The Children’s Hospital Mobile Blood Drive is going to making several appearances at The Grange throughout the year.
A Gift that Makes an Incredible Difference
I can’t imagine what it’s like for families whose children have life-threatening diseases or traumatic injuries that require life-saving surgery. The blood donated during this mobile blood drive at the Grange will help those children and families — doctors at Children’s Hospital of Colorado will use your blood to help kids who need surgery or blood transfusions.
Just 30-45 Minutes to Help a Life
Don’t worry about having time — you have it. The blood drive process, including paperwork, only takes between 30 and 45 minutes. You have four more chances to donate this year. Register for the blood drive on Monday, October 7th, , and Monday, December, 9th.
