The need for blood is especially bad right now. Late last month, Bloodworks Northwest announced a "Code Red" blood shortage, with less than a 24-hour supply on hand at any given time.
If you want giving but can't make Bonney Lake PD's event, Cascade Regional Blood Services is taking donations at all of their locations this week. There are also several upcoming Red Cross blood drives in Pierce County.
