There’s nothing like donating a pint of blood to save a life. Come visit the grounds of City Hall when the Port St. Lucie branch of Florida’s Blood Centers conducts blood drives on Tuesday, Sept. 29 and again on Friday, Oct. 2 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. both days. All donors will receive a Perkins coupon for a free adult entrée valued up to $10.
According to Tracey Skinner, donor development coordinator for the Port St. Lucie branches of Florida’s Blood Centers, many people who would like to donate blood often do not because they believe they have a medical condition that prevents them from donating. However, there are many misconceptions about this, and residents can attend the blood drive to find out if they are eligible to donate blood. For more information, visit www.floridasbloodcenters.org or call the toll-free number at (888) 9-DONATE.
City Hall is located at 121 S.W. Port St. Lucie Blvd.
