Dear New Glarus area and neighbors,
The August 4th Community Blood Drive is rapidly coming upon us. This drive will be hosted by Swiss UCC. The usual times, Noon to 6:00 p.m., for your convenience and the great location of the air conditioned New Glarus Bible Church gym.
Please remember to eat healthy the week prior to donating. An ice cream diet in the heat of summer does not help the blood sink (keep your iron levels up) and too, eating a good meal within four hours prior to donating is also recommended. Donations often lag over summer due to vacations and busy lives, but sadly the need for blood transfusions does not. Please attend the August drive and even bring a friend! Walk-ins are always welcome.
You can save up to 15 minutes when you donate blood by using RapidPass! Visit: http://www.redcrossblood.org/RapidPass for more information. Download the Blood Donor App or call 1-800-Red Cross (1-800-733-2767).
Thanks!
Ruth, Linda, Sara and Bill
P.S. Swiss Church Members, we need cookies and bars and also need some of you to sign up to help! Ruth Anderegg
