Avance Care Fuquay Varina Asks Community to “Roll-Up” Sleeves and Donate Blood in Support of National Blood Donor Month

FUQUAY-VARINA, N.C., Jan 19, 2023 – Avance Care Fuquay Varina is hosting a blood drive in partnership with Cary Cardiology, Results Physiotherapy, and The Blood Connection in support of National Blood Donor Month on January 19, 2023, at 400 Attain Street in Fuquay-Varina.

Winter is one of the most challenging times of the year to collect blood products and donations to meet patients’ needs. This year, North Carolina’s blood supply has dropped to critical levels and could delay essential blood and platelet transfusions. Blood donors of all types-particularly type O blood- are encouraged to attend to help meet the daily demands.

All donors will receive a $10 eGift card, and a $10 charitable donation will be made to Wake County’s own National Alliance of Mental illness (NAMI) per blood donor.

To schedule an appointment, go to https://donate.thebloodconnection.org/donor/schedules/sponsor_code and use sponsor code 9252.

 

What: Blood Drive

When: January 19, 2023, 10 am – 3 pm

Where: Avance Care parking lot, 400 Attain Street, Fuquay Varina, NC 27526

If you cannot donate but still wish to participate in bringing crucial blood products to patients in need, please ask someone to donate for you, or consider volunteering at a local blood drive!
