The American Red Cross is hoping you can help out and donate blood at an upcoming blood drive in Findlay.

Blood donations tend to drop during the summer while the need remains high due to summer accidents and trauma, often requiring more blood transfusions. 

The Red Cross says it is very low on appointments for some upcoming blood drives and needs your help to avoid a blood shortage. 

July 30 – Cedar Creek Church from 9 am to 3 pm (2111 Stonehedge Dr.)

July 31 – Blanchard Valley Center from 9 am to 3 pm (1700 E. Sandusky St.)

August 1 – Findlay Elks from 10 am to 4 pm (900 W. Melrose)

There is also a blood drive on Thursday, July 24 at St. Marks United Methodist Church (800 South Main Street).
