Blood donation

Blood donation is safe. bloodcenter.orgWhile LLCC Student Life will not be able to host a blood drive on campus this summer, there are still ways you can donate blood during this time of need in our community. We wanted to share with you the following information from our friends at Central Illinois Community Blood Center:

Blood is a critical resource for patients, and the blood center must maintain 24/7 operations during this pandemic to ensure life-saving treatment can continue.

Blood demand is increasing as hospitals have eased restrictions on elective surgeries and are now providing treatment options that were previously postponed. CICBC is asking blood donors to step forward during this challenging time.

If you are healthy, please consider donating. View guidelines and learn about safety measures the Blood Center is taking.

Donations are currently accepted by appointment only.
