Parkway Blood Drive Today!

TODAY is Parkway PTA Blood Drive it is from 3-9 in the gym of Parkway Elementary School in East Meadow - 465 Bellmore Road. Please come and donate blood if you possibly can. You can give just an hour of your time and save up to 3 lives! Babies, cancer patients, surgery patients, accident victims, and so on.... many people depend on blood donations to live. There is a serious blood shortage due to the harsh winter and a lot of drives being cancelled and low turnout. If you are O- there is an even greater need for your blood, you are the universal donor and they are specifically asking for you to please donate. Bring a friend if you can. This is such an easy way to make a huge difference for many people, please donate. You can bring the kids if you need to, we will have babysitting right in the other half of the gym. Many people are under the impression that they cannot donate when they really can. Look here and see if you are eligible to donate.http://nybloodcenter.org/donate-blood/become-donor/can-i-donate-blood/
Thanks, and hope to see you later!
