heeling board of health to host community blood drive

The Wheeling board of health will be holding a community blood drive from 2 until 7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 13, at Village Hall, 2 Community Blvd. Walk-ins are welcome.

Blood donors of all types are needed every day for critically ill patients, accident victims, people needing surgery and those patients suffering from chronic diseases such as cancer and leukemia. If all eligible people would donate, there would never be a blood shortage. Every pint of blood donated will help save three lives.

To schedule an appointment, call Beverly Slaby at (847) 499-9045 or email her at bslaby@wheelingil.gov.
