Blood Drive at Northwest Savings

The second annual blood drive as part of Northwest Savings
Bank's Community Banking Week is this Monday April 12th from noon to 4pm.
The Community Blood Bank's 'Turtletop' (small blood mobile) will be parked
in the parking lot at 85 West Washington Street in Bradford and will be open
to the public. Just come on in. No appointment is needed to save a life.

The blood supply is lower than last year at this time due in part to the
recent streak of warm weather (although gone now). Blood usage had spiked
and the number of donors had declined with the summer like weather.

The Community Blood Bank enjoys an excellent relationship with Northwest
Savings Bank. In Erie County Northwest savings bank has won the "Battle of
the Bankers" promotion 4 years running and Jack Banner, manager of a
Northwest Branch in Erie sits on the Community Blood Bank board of
directors.

All donors are strongly encouraged to donate. The Community Blood Bank is
located at 24 Davis Street in Union Square across from the Sports Café in
the BRMC Laboratory. Hours are on Thursday are 3:30pm to 7:30pm and Saturday
9am to 1pm. No appointment is necessary. All donors are strongly encouraged
to donate. Donors must be at least 17 years old, weigh 110 pounds and be in
generally good health. Photo ID is required.
