Drop Counts Blood Drive September 11
The St. Anthony Council #11585, Knights of Columbus located in Wood-Ridge will once again be hosting its An- nual Community Blood Drive. The drive will take place on Friday, September 11, 2015 from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m.
The Community Bloodmo- bile will be stationed on Valley Boulevard at Veterans Park (Valley Boulevard between Highland Avenue and Marl- boro Road).
The need for blood locally remains constant, and dona- tions are needed to offset sum- mer blood shortages. People can donate a pint of blood every 56 days. Donors are en- couraged to eat a meal prior to giving blood and drink plenty of water. Photo ID is required at donation time. Blood dona- tion requirements include a minimum weight of 114 pounds and minimum age of 17.
For more information or to schedule an appointment, please contact PGK Tom Gon- nella at 201-933-3082. Walk-ins are welcomed.
