⚠️ O NEGATIVE DONORS NEEDED NOW! ⚠️

O- is the universal blood type used in emergencies, trauma cases, and for newborns when there’s no time to check blood type. Hospitals rely on O- daily—but right now, our supply is dangerously low.

If you’re O-, you could be the lifeline for a patient in crisis. As a thank you, all O- donors who give and register by June 30 will receive a free belt bag.

Please donate as soon as possible. Find a donation location near you at bit.ly/43h3lQO.

Thank you to our amazing team of nurses and for all you do for our patients everyday!!!!
