Palatine holding blood drive

The Palatine's board of health is inviting residents to participate in its blood drive in January and February to ensure the supply remains adequate during COVID-19.

Visit the village's website at palatine.il.us/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=149 and click on "sign up" to get an invitation via email to schedule an appointment via the nonprofit Vitalant.

When you receive the email, click "schedule now" to book your appointment at any convenient blood donation location.

Please use the same email address you used to sign up so Vitalant can connect your donation to the Palatine board of health drive.

Prepare for your donation by eating and healthy meal and drinking plenty of water.
