Description

When the sun is shining, the music is playing, and you’re living your best summer life-donating blood may not be on your bucket list. But here is why it should be. Summer is one of the most critical times of the year for blood donation. With schools out and regular routines on hold, blood donations tend to drop, but the need stays strong. Hospital patients don’t get a summer break, and local lives depend on a steady blood supply every day.

That’s where you come in. The best time to save lives is right now. The best time is Donor Time. LifeServe Blood Center and Alpha Media-Fort Dodge are partnering up to save lives on Friday, May 30, 2025, from 7 a.m.-3 p.m. at the Fort Dodge Donor Center (118 South 25^th Street). To schedule your lifesaving donation appointment, visit lifeserve.info/FD53025 or call 800-287-4903.
