Special Blood Drive

Special Blood Drive at St. Bartholomew's Church, this Sunday, June 5th
8am-2pm

The East Brunswick Rescue Squad and the St. Bartholomew's Knights of
Columbus are teaming up to have a "Special" Blood Drive this Sunday, June
5th, at St. Bartholomew's Church (470 Ryders Lane) from 8am-2pm.  Summer
shortages are common but having the low levels we are experiencing now is
especially concerning.  Obviously we need all blood types but if you are
type Rh negative (A-, B- and O-), or type O+, we especially could use your
help now..  Please consider donating a pint of blood this Sunday at St.
Bartholomew's Church.  Also, please consider telling a friend or family
member about this situation.  It impacts every one of us.   

If you think you can donate, please contact John Hosie or the East Brunswick
Rescue Squad at 732-387-8388 so that we can anticipate the number of donors
we think we'll have to make sure adequate staff from NJ blood services is
available.  You can also directly register by going to:
