ERIE — A Community Blood Bank blood drive will be held from noon to 5 p.m. Monday at St. Bernard Church in Bradford.

All eligible individuals are urged to consider donating to help save lives. Call (814) 596-3395 to schedule your appointment to donate. Appointments are encouraged to reduce your wait time but are not required. Walk-ins will be taken as space allows.

All who donate in July will be entered into a drawing to win a golf getaway prize package, including an overnight stay at Peek’n Peak Resort, 18 holes of golf for four guests, and a $100 gift certificate to Bistro 210.

This special initiative aims to boost blood donations during the summer months, which tends to see a low turnout. If you are at least 17 years of age, weigh a minimum of 110 pounds, and are in good general health, you may be eligible to donate blood. You must have a valid photo ID to donate. Prior to donating, those giving blood should eat a good, solid meal and drink at least 18 oz. of water. To learn more or to find a blood drive near you, visit fourhearts.org or call (877) 842-0631.
