blood donorThe holidays are a time for celebrating friends and family, to cherish those special moments and count our blessings. I’m thankful for our donors, for being a vital connection in Canada’s lifeline. And I’m thankful for friends like you in the community for encouraging others to join in building a stronger and heathier Canada.

Below are the details of upcoming donation events in the month of December in both Owen Sound and Meaford. At this time of year, we are competing with all sorts of charities for your time and attention, and “NEW DONORS” are at the top of my wish list for Santa.  The need for blood is constant, even during the holiday season. Cancer treatments, trauma surgeries, and organ transplants all routinely take place between Christmas and New Year’s Day. Join Canada’s lifeline this holiday season and encourage your family and friends to donate with you.

Please share the details of these upcoming events with your friends and consider joining #CanadasLifeline. It’s the best gift you can give this holiday season.
