First Parish to sponsor Red Cross Blood Drive, Saturday, March 7th, 9am-3pm

First Parish in Wayland is sponsoring its first Red Cross Blood Drive.  If you’ve never donated blood before, now is the time to try.  Donating blood only takes an hour, its pain-free and there are always free snacks!  Not to mention, its one of the easiest things you can do to save a life.   And if that’s not enough incentive, all donors will be entered into a drawing for a Red Cross First Aid kit and receive a Red Cross wrist band.  

To make an appointment, please call 1-800-GIVE-LIFE (1-800-448-3543) or go on-line to www.redcross.org. Individuals who are 16 years old or older are eligible.  If you are 16, you can now donate with parental consent thanks to a new law passed by Governor Patrick in September of 2008. Please print out the form from the following website link, have your parents sign it and bring to the drive. http://www.newenglandblood.org/mass/sixteen.htm.  For any questions about the Blood Drive at First Parish, please contact Mary Kay Peacock, peacockmk@gmail.com or (508) 358-8187.
