Blood Bank Gas Card Giveaway

The Community Blood Bank of NW PA and Country Fair have teamed up to help keep the local blood supply safe this summer.

Two lucky donors this week will win a $50 gas card generously donated by Country Fair. One donor on Thursday will win and another on Saturday. The summer is the hardest time of year for the blood supply and with all the travelling everyone could use a gas card.

The Community Blood Bank is open Thursday at Union Square from 3:30 to 7:30pm and Saturday 9a.m. to 1 p.m. No appointment is needed to save a life.

"This is such a great promotion," Says Dan Desrochers Director of Marketing at the Community Blood Bank. "We are so grateful to Country Fair. We hope lots of donors come out and give blood this week."

The Community Blood Bank is the EXCLUSIVE supplier of blood products to all the hospitals in Erie, Mc Kean, Warren, Elk and Potter Counties. And now supplies Tioga County at over 50%. The CBB supplies 98% of all blood used in Chautauqua, Cattaraugus, & Allegany Counties in WNY. Only blood donated with the Community Blood Bank will alleviate the shortage in these counties and will help patients at local hospitals.

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. Everyone over 16 is strongly encouraged to donate.
