The Galesburg Noon Lions Club was chartered on November 18, 1920 and celebrated its 100th anniversary last year. To commemorate that anniversary the Lions Club chose to sponsor blood drives with the goal of achieving 100 units by the anniversary date. The first drive was held in November 2018 and nearly 200 units have been collected since then. If you are a donor or would like to be a donor please consider donating at this very crucial time. All blood types are needed and first time donors are always welcome.
