Dear Neighbors,
The Halesite Fire Department’s Ladies Auxiliary will once again be hosting the Long Island Blood Service to conduct our annual winter blood drive. Please join us this Friday, January 6, 2017 from 3:30pm – 8:00pm, to donate blood.
Donating blood is literally giving the gift of life. Each day, patients in our region need close to 2,000 people to roll up their sleeves to give the gift of life. Without donors, our community would not have an adequate blood supply.
All donors must be 17 years of age or older (or 16 with parental consent), weigh at least 110 pounds and be feeling “in good health” on the day of donation. You must have your photo ID on you, and be prepared to spend about 30-45 minutes in the donation process. Light refreshments will be served by our Ladies Auxiliary.
Please join your friends and neighbors in donating blood and starting off the New Year right.
Stay Safe!
Greg Colonna
Chief of Department
