Give Back: Donate Blood at The OC
Kick off the new school year by making a life-saving impact! The American Red Cross Blood Drive is back at The OC on Monday, August 24, from 9 AM to 3 PM in the Multipurpose Room (East Side, 1st Floor by the OC Theatre).
A single donation can save up to three lives and directly restock local hospital supplies. Whether you are a first-time donor or a seasoned pro, your support makes a real difference right here in our community. ❤️
🩸 Ways to Donate
Whole Blood: The standard donation where approximately one pint of blood is collected. The entire process takes about an hour.
Power Red: Collects a concentrated dose of red blood cells while safely returning most of your plasma and platelets back to you. Eligible donors must meet specific physical requirements and have Type A-, B-, or O blood.
