Hello Minden Community Members!
Time to come Give Blood again! - asking those of you who have never thought about donating before to consider the value of taking time out of your day to do so. Our country is currently in a national blood shortage with all that is going on and so your small contribution of time - holds great value and impact.
Consider giving blood for the first time or again if you haven't in a while and help make an impact!
(Also our Minden High School students receive a good chunk of scholarship money depending on how many units are collected - the higher the units the more scholarship money for one of our Minden Seniors who take on hosting all of our blood drives each year!)
Our school will host our second Blood Drive this year at the school on Friday, March 25th,-- we hold it in our activities gym. Appointments from 8-2.
Sign up here for times!
