The Langford Community Blood Drive, held last Thursday, proved to be a success for the local community. With 26 donors stepping up to contribute, the drive collected 29 units of life-saving blood. These donations have the potential to save up to 87 lives, making a significant impact on patients in need.
Celebrated milestones included several donors achieving new heights, such as Karen Erickson, Chad Hardy, and Bobby West, who reached their “1 Galloneer” status.
Blood drives rely on more than just donors. Volunteers, sponsors, and event organizers are essential to maintaining a strong blood supply.
