The 21st Annual KLOS/ABC7 Blood Drive will occur on Thursday, Aug. 1, Friday, Aug. 2 and Saturday, Aug. 3 at the American Red Cross Santa Monica Chapter, 1450 11th Street.
As the largest single-sponsor blood drive in the nation, the KLOS/ABC7 Blood Drive has become a mainstay, upon which the American Red Cross and the community have come to depend.
All blood drive participants will receive an exclusive, commemorative KLOS/ABC7 blood drive t-shirt.
All blood drive participants will also be given a voucher that will have their names printed on it. They will be able to redeem this voucher for one admission to the Scorpions/Deep Purple/Dio concert on Saturday, Aug. 3, 2002 at the Blockbuster Pavilion. This voucher has no cash value and can only be redeemed by the person whose name is written on the voucher.
To donate blood, one must be at least 17 years of age, weigh at least 110 pounds and be in good health. If you have ever had hepatitis, have been tattooed in the past twelve months or are currently pregnant, you will not be eligible to donate blood.
To make an appointment to donate blood, please call 1.800.GIVE.LIFE.
