Lodge 343 Blood Drive #38
Port Huron Elks Lodge 343 held our 38th consecutive Blood drive on May 16th . You may be interested to know, (33) donors registered, (4) donors were deferred and (26) whole blood pints collected (3 Power reds = 6 pints) for 32 total units were collected which is 123% of our anticipated goal. We also had 12 Type “O” donors of the 33 who arrived to provide the ”Gift of Life”. With Lodge 343 supporting the American Red Cross, we have collected over 1,275 units (pints) = 160 plus gallons of blood since our 1st blood drive on January 7, 2013. We are now on our way to reaching our next goal of 2,000 pints (250 gallons). Thank you to Richard & Mary from the Burchville Lions Club who donated their time at the sign in table and step-down area. Our 39th Blood Drive has been scheduled for Monday, June 20th.
