The Daily Bruin

George Fox and the American Red Cross are hosting a blood drive next week. The need for blood is constant, and only volunteer donors can fulfill that need for patients in our community. Nationwide, someone needs a unit of blood every two to three seconds, and most of us will need blood in our lifetime.

Drive Details
Location: Abby’s Legendary Pizza
Address: 1913 Portland Road, Newberg
Date: Friday, April 13
Time: 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Please reserve your donation time by using this link or calling 800-733-2767. After clicking on the link, enter “97132” in the ZIP code search box and click on the “By Distance” tab to find the “Abby’s Pizza” blood drive link.

Please join our lifesaving mission and schedule an appointment today! If you have questions or need help, contact Bethany Christensen (bchristensen15@georgefox.edu) or Craig Lee (leec10@georgefox.edu).
