ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Ill. – New state Rep. Nicolle Grasse, D-Arlington Heights, will host a community blood drive in collaboration with state Sen. Mark Walker next week.
“I invite neighbors across my community to join us for a community blood drive and give the gift that can change someone’s life for the better,” said Grasse. “Blood drives are extremely important to make sure hospitals have a stable supply to help others in tragic accidents, treatments for cancer patients, and other emergency situations. Donating blood is fast and easy — plus, you can save lives and significantly impact local families in times of crisis and beyond. I look forward to seeing members of our community come together for this event.”
The blood drive will take place on July 11 from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. in Pioneer Park (500 S Fernandez Ave.) in Arlington Heights. Walk-in appointments are accepted. Those interested can also register for the community blood drive by visiting Versiti Blood Center of Illinois – Donor Portal.
