The Riverhead community is invited to participate in a blood drive organized by the New York Blood Center. The drive will take place at the Riverhead Fire Department located at 540 Roanoke Ave. The event is scheduled for Tuesday, Dec. 3, from 1 to 7 p.m.
Donations of all blood types are needed, particularly A-, B+, AB+, O+ and O-. Each donation can save lives and is a vital contribution to the community.
Donors will receive a New York Blood Center t-shirt as a token of appreciation, and homemade baked goods will be available for all participants. While walk-ins are welcome, appointments are preferred. To schedule an appointment, scan the QR code on the event flyer, call 1-800-933-2566, or visit the New York Blood Center website.
