To help ensure an adequate blood supply for the central Illinois
area, there will be a blood drive Monday at Lincoln Christian
College, 100 Campus View Drive in Lincoln. The CICBC bloodmobile
will be parked at The Warehouse. The hours of the blood drive are 10
a.m.-3:30 p.m. For your convenience, please call Mary Kay Davis to
sign up at 732-3168, ext. 2251, or schedule online at
www.cicbc.org.
Of course walk-ins are always welcome and sincerely appreciated.
The Central Illinois Community Blood Center is a not-for-profit
organization that provides blood to 19 area hospitals. Blood
collected at this blood drive is intended for local hospitals.
The blood supply is totally dependent upon volunteers who will
take a few minutes to roll up their sleeve and donate blood. If you
are healthy, please do your part by donating blood. Blood has a
shelf life of only 42 days. Fortunately it is a renewable resource,
but it depends on people who care.
The CICBC donor room, located at 1134 S. Seventh St. in
Springfield, is open to collect blood on Mondays and Tuesdays from 9
a.m. to 5 p.m., Wednesdays and Thursdays from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.,
Fridays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to noon.

types, visit www.cicbc.org.
Please give what's in your heart and donate blood.
