American Red Cross, Blood Drive, Bloomington IL, Hispanic Community Event, Hispanics

The American Red Cross of the Heartland will be holding two blood drives that specifically reach out to the Latino Community. Research has shown that a large percentage of Latinos in the United States have type O blood, universal donor. However, only 4% of Latinos give blood. By making these blood drives Latino-friendly with a bilingual staff, the Red Cross of the Heartland is looking to change this statistic. Nevertheless, this is not exclusive to Latinos; all are welcome to come and give blood.
The first blood drive will be held on Monday, July 25th, at The Arbors at Eastland Apartments [208 S. Prospect Road, Bloomington, IL 61704] from 1:00pm to 5:00pm.
The second will be held on Friday July 29th at Western Avenue Community Center [600 N. Western Avenue, Bloomington, IL 61701] from 11:00am to 3:00pm.
You can call 309-662-0500 or visit http://www.archeartland.org/ to make an appointment. Walk-ins are welcome. Please spread the word about these drives and help save lives!
