Blood Drive at Library Today

The American Red Cross will hold a faculty/staff blood drive today,  Tuesday, January 11,  10 a.m.-4 p.m. in the Dietrich Reading Room on the first floor of the Van Pelt-Dietrich Library. There is an urgent need for blood at this time; the Penn-Jersey Region has an especially low inventory of O- blood. This is primarily a faculty/staff drive, but student donors are welcome; everyone should sign up for donation, but we will try to accommodate walk-ins. Please, if you are eligible to donate, visit  the website and sign up, http://givesblood.org/go.php?bdc=210992.

If you have questions about eligibility, you can check out the ARC website, www.pleasegiveblood.org. If you have travelled outside the U.S. recently for more than three months, or have any other questions about donation,  call (215) 451-4363. Please help save a life!
