The blood drive is being sponsored by the Grace Evangelical Youth Group. Donating blood actually gives someone a second chance at life. Your donation could mean life for a child battling leukemia, young man undergoing sickle cell anemia crisis, an open heart patient, or for a trauma victim. Blood donors must be 17 years or older, weigh at least 110 pounds, and be in good health. Most medicines will not prevent you from donating.
All donors receive cholesterol testing.
To make your experience more pleasant, be sure to get a good night s rest, drink plenty of fluids and eat well before donating. We are making available information on a Focus Over Fifty Conference September 13 16. The conference will be held at the Focus on the Family campus located in Colorado Springs, Colorado. There will be workshops available dealing with some of the issues of the fifty plus years. Some of the main speakers will be Dr. James Dobson, founder of Focus on the Family and Dr. Bruce Wilkinson, founder and president of Walk thru the Bible Ministries and author of the popular book The Prayer of Jabez.
