GRIDLEY, CA (MPG) - The holidays are typically a time of decreased blood donations, so the upcoming Vitalant blood drive is a time to catch up on the blood supply. Vitalant seeks to maintain a 3–4-day supply, but currently supply stands at 1-2 days.
Bring a friend and donate blood on Tuesday, January 30 from 2:15pm - 6:00pm at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at 400 Spruce Street in Gridley. Walk-ins are welcome, and appointments receive priority. Please make appointments at vitalant.org. Refreshments will be served.
