Blood drive to be held July 14-15 at Towsley Center

Michigan Medicine faculty and staff will soon have the ability to donate blood and assist those who need it.

On July 14 and 15, the American Red Cross will hold a blood drive in the Towsley Center lobby.

The drive will be held from 6:30 a.m. until 6:30 p.m. each day. Please be advised that once again, this drive will be limited to Michigan Medicine employees only in order to comply with the COVID-19 visitor policy. Drives have been filling up fast, so it is recommended that individuals make an appointment as soon as possible. Walk-ins will not be accepted.

Details about donating or volunteering at the drive can be found here.
