Summit Pacific’s Summer Blood Drive @ Summit Pacific Medical Center Parking Lot, Bloodmobile
Jul 25 @ 10:00 am – 4:00 pm

Don’t take a vacation from donating blood! Summer at Bloodworks Northwest is a tough one as they typically see a sharp downturn in blood donations – 15% fewer people are donating due to holidays, vacations and nicer weather. It is incredibly difficult to generate enough donations during this time of year, yet the need for blood never takes a vacation.

Questions about eligibility? Contact our clinical specialist at ClinicalP@BloodWorksNW.org or call (206) 292-2543.

***When you donate, please remember to eat a good meal, drink plenty of water, and bring a photo I.D. ***
