8 On Your Side Blood Drive May 24
TAMPA (WFLA) – News Channel 8 is partnering with OneBlood and Culver’s throughout the Tampa Bay area on Friday, May 24. The drive marks the start of the Memorial Day holiday weekend and therefore, Blood Donors are always needed.
It’s a great opportunity to donate blood and save lives. The goal for this Blood Drive is to make it easier for YOU to donate by offering multiple locations at different times.
All donors will also get a wellness checkup provided by OneBlood, including blood pressure, pulse, temperature, iron count and cholesterol screening.
