Blood drive scheduled for Shelby County courthouse today

There will be a blood drive today in Center as the Shelby County Sheriff's Office and Shelby County Courthouse will host the event from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. in the parking lot of the active courthouse parking lot.

 

County Treasurer Ann Blackwell is coordinating the event and tells us that blood center personnel are saying because of weather issues across the region the collection of blood donations are down.

 

She says she was told that a lot of usual blood drives had to be cancelled, therefore limiting supplies that are needed for area hospitals. Ms. Blackwell said this would be a great opportunity to help those that are in need with all's that's going on.

 

Ms. Blackwell says today's blood drive is a tee-shirt drive with military colored shirts. If you'd like to set up a time to donate, contact her at 936-598-3581.
