From Community Director
Thursday, April 25, 12:00 PM - 5:00 PM 

The Franklin Lakes Mayors Wellness Campaign will host a Blood Drive on Thursday, April 25. We are joining Jacqueline Pagano as she honors the legacy of her Mother, Jessica Pagano. Jacqueline is asking donors of all ages, especially younger donors, to come out and support her in the quest to reach the younger generation to help the critical need for blood donations. Jacqueline stated, “Together, let’s make a meaningful impact and continue the legacy of love and compassion my Mom left behind.”

 

Donating blood is safe and easy to do, but there are a few basic requirements to donate blood. If you're in good health and meet the general eligibility blood donation requirements, then you are likely able to give blood. There is a critical need for blood. Remember, "Because of you, life doesn't stop."

Appointments are required. Location: Franklin Lakes Ambulance Corps Building, Bender Court. Register here. Flyer.
