Blood Donations Down in January - Donate Locally

Help out by donating blood on Tuesday or Saturday.

Do your part and help give the gift of life by donating at a local blood drive this week. 

The American Red Cross and the American Legion is holding a community blood drive on Tuesday from 1:30 to 7 p.m. at the Burlington American Legion at 162 Winn St., Burlington. 

The Red Cross is also holding a blood drive at the Woburn American Legion Hall Post 101, 194 Lexington Street, Woburn, on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. 

As reported on Patch, because of the cold weather across the country, the Red Cross has had to cancel many blood drives, creating a deficit for patients in need. If you are going to donate now is the time.
