PORT ALLEGANY – Community Blood Bank of NWPA & WNY encourages all eligible donors to give blood as soon as possible. By donating blood, you can help ensure a sufficient supply of blood products to meet the needs of patients in your community.

A blood drive will be held from 2 to 6 p.m. June 1 at S.W. Smith Memorial Public Library in Port Allegany.

During the summer months Community Blood Bank typically sees a steep decline in donations due to family vacations, school breaks, and holidays. Help Pump Up the Blood Supply by donating blood at a Community Blood Bank drive or the Erie Donor Center. All donors will be entered to win one of four $100 gas gift cards to a gas station of their choice. All donors who give blood from May 30th through June 3rd will also be entered for the chance to win 2 tickets to see Taylor Swift on June 17th in Pittsburgh.

Call (814) 456-4206 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.
