Blood Drive
The Arc of Monroe will be hosting a blood drive, which will be open to the public as well as to people within our agency.
When: April 27th
Time: 9am – 2pm
Place: 2060 Brighton-Henrietta Townline Road, Rochester, NY 14623, in the Education & Training Center.
As you may be aware, there is a dire shortage of blood right now, and the American Red Cross is trying to do all that they can, to ensure they have a well-stocked bank, so that they are able to fulfil requests as needed. They are encouraging all people keep, and make new appointments, so they are able to help those in need during the months ahead.
All donors will need to make an appointment, to ensure we are able to keep the number of people to a minimum, and ensure proper distancing. The Red Cross is requiring that all donors wear face masks. They are encouraged to bring their own; however one will be provided if they do not have one.
