Huntley Blood Bank Drive
Aurora Area Blood Bank will be holding a blood drive in Huntley on Thursday, January 26, from 3:00 to 7:00 pm at the' social hall of the First Congregational Church of Hunt¬ ley.
The Aurora Area Blood Bank provides all the blood and blood component needs of patients in twenty-two community hosipi- tals in nine counties. These needs aro ever incroasing and your voluntary blood dcmatlons make this service possible.
A unit of blood helps more than one patient. A pint of blood drawn from a donor is often divided    and    processed    into
several of its componenu... rod cells, platelets and plasma. Since most patients require only certain components, each unit of blood can be used for as many as five different patients.
Blood must be available when and if needed. A reliable blood supply is assured only by the continuing donations of mem¬ bers of the community. Every day over 200 pints of blood are needed to meet the ever increasing transfusion needs of patients in our area.
May Chesak, Huntley Blood Bank Chairman, urges all who can to, please, continue to donate blood.
