Wimbledon hosted a blood drive with Vitalant on Jan. 20 at the former school gym which collected 39 units of blood products for patients in need.
Thirty-seven individuals volunteered and were able to donate at the drive, with three giving Power Red Cells (2RBC), which collects two units of red blood cells while returning platelets, plasma and a saline solution to the donor. One person volunteered to donate blood for the first time.
Vitalant expressed its gratitude to Chad Bakken, who coordinated the drive, and the Wimbledon Fire Department which sponsored the blood drive, as well as Steve Guscette for providing a location for the drive.
