OneBlood will hold a blood drive on Wednesday, Nov. 3 outside Venice City Hall, 401 W. Venice Ave., from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

OneBlood officials encourage all City employees and members of the public who feel well to come out and donate the “gift of life” aboard the Big Red Bus to ensure that blood is available for those patients who need it. Note: It must be 56 days since your last whole blood donation.

Donating blood is safe. COVID-19 does not pose any known risk to blood donors during the donation process or from attending blood drives.

Each donor will receive a free OneBlood blanket and $10 eGift Card, along with a wellness checkup including blood pressure, temperature, iron count, pulse and cholesterol screening, and a snack. 

ID required please. 

Appointments are strongly encouraged. Visit www.oneblood.org/donate-now and use sponsor code #9354.
