Portland City Hosts Blood Drive On June 30

Press release from the City of Portland:

June 17, 2020

The City of Portland is proud to sponsor our next blood drive with the American Red Cross on June 30th 2020 at Portland Ocean Gateway.

An estimated 38 percent of Americans are eligible to give blood or platelets, but of those, less than 10 percent actually donate each year. If you are healthy and eligible, please come out to donate. Our goal is to collect 25 units of blood. Most donations take about an hour, so book your appointment, roll up your sleeve and become a part of the lifesaving mission of the Red Cross and the City of Portland.

When: Tuesday, June 30 9:00 am to 2:00 pm
