COLUMBUS, Ga. (WTVM) - LifeSouth Community Blood Centers is now supplying all of the blood for Saint Francis Emory Hospital in Columbus and they need your help.
According to Melinda Hinds with LifeSouth, they’re hoping businesses, churches, and other organizations in the Fountain City will host blood drives with LifeSouth to stock the shelves at Saint Francis.

The scouts couldn t do their typical door-to-door sales this year and while online sales and a partnership with Grubhub helped, it still wasn t enough. The scouts have enough leftover boxes to wrap around Interstate 640, the organization said.
