Dunwoody Scout Troops 477 and 1919 to host Blood Drive at Kingswood Church on Sunday, March 27 from 9:00 to 4:00

Save a Life – Donate Blood!

Scout Troops 477 and 1919 to host Blood Drive at Kingswood Church on Sunday, March 27 from 9:00 to 4:00.  

There is currently a severe blood shortage.  Donating blood is a selfless act by one person to help save the lives of others. Blood cannot be manufactured, and local hospitals rely on blood donors to make sure blood is on the shelf to help patients in their moment of need. Approximately 37 percent of the U.S. population is eligible to donate, yet less than 10 percent donate annually.  

You can help by signing up to give blood.  The whole process can take as little as 45 minutes.  Walk-ins are welcome but by signing up we can make sure we are ready for you and staffed appropriately.  A supervised game area for kids of ages will be available!

To save a spot (and pre-register to save some time), go to http://appt.lifesouth.org/BSA 

Address of Kingswood is 4896 N Peachtree Road, Dunwoody, Georgia 30338

Donors must be 16 or older, weigh at least 110 pounds, and show a photo I.D.  16-year-olds require written parental permission.
