Roll up your sleeve and help save a life by donating the "gift of life" at a Blood Drive Tuesday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Laredo Community College in the Kazen College Center.
A similar event will be held next Tuesday, March 7 at the Billy Hall Student Center at LCC South.
Both events will be conducted by the South Texas Blood and Tissue Center with the cooperation of LCC Health Services.
These city-wide blood drives will help to meet the demand for blood in the region.
Eligible donors are encouraged to donate at the LCC blood drives to assist the communities the center serves.
To donate blood, the donor must be 17 years of age or older, weigh at least 110 pounds and be in good general health.
Proper photo identification is required to donate blood. Donors also should eat and drink plenty of fluids before donating blood.
Blood donors will be rewarded with a duffle bag and refreshments.
