BLOOD DRIVE:
Did you know that fewer than 2% of Hoosiers donate blood annually? We hope you will be part of that important 2% at the blood drive to take place on Tuesday, March 28th in the parking lot of the FourPoints hotel. Donations will help people in Indiana or other nearby states. If you donate blood, you are helping to save three lives! This will take just 45 minutes of your time. To sign up, go to
donorpoint.org/donor/schedules/drive_schedule/113134.
Let KATIE NIELSEN know if you have questions.
