Palm Desert to Host '9 Cities Challenge' Blood Drive

From the City of Palm Desert: The City of Palm Desert is hosting a blood drive on Saturday, July 8th from 8 a.m. – 2 p.m. at the Palm Desert Community Center (43900 San Pablo Ave.) as part of the 9 Cities Challenge.

Donate blood and receive a free ticket to Wet'n'Wild Palm Springs and a certificate for a free combo meal at Jack in the Box! Tell your friends & family!

Coachella Valley Communities are going head-to-head to collect the most blood to assist local hospital patients. Summer is the most challenging time of year for hospitals to maintain ample blood supplies for emergency and everyday needs. Your help at this time is especially critical!

Walk-ins are welcome but we strongly encourage you to make an appointment to reserve your spot!
Or call 1.800.879.4484.

Remember to bring a photo ID and drink lots of fluids (water is best) in the days prior to our drive.

Note: 15 to 17-year olds require signed parental permission and proof of date of birth to give blood. The consent form may be downloaded at www.LStream.org and will also be available at the blood drive.

All donors will receive:

• A complimentary single-day admission ticket to Wet'n'Wild Palm Springs!
• A certificate for a free combo meal at Jack in the Box!

Thank you for supporting our blood drive and your community. We look forward to seeing you on Saturday, July 8!
