WILMINGTON – CMH Regional Health System will sponsor the monthly Wilmington community blood drive Wednesday, March 10 from noon to 6:30 p.m. in the Wilmington Municipal Building Moyer Community Room, 69 N. South St.

Everyone who registers to donate gets the new “Donor Shenanigans” t-shirt plus free COVID-19 antibody testing. Make an appointment at www.DonorTime.com or call (937) 461-3220.

March is St. Patrick’s Day month and donors can get in the green with the new “Donor Shenanigans” t-shirt, available March 1 through March 27.

Community Blood Center is calling 2021 “Blood Donor Year” because of the impact of COVID-19 restrictions and weather cancellations on blood drives. Type O positive blood is in high demand and CBC has a continued need for type O positive donors.

The goal of the “Fight. Heal. Give” campaign is to encourage COVID-19 Convalescent Plasma donations, especially from new donors. Learn more about donating CCP and register at ccp.givingblood.org and make an appointment at (937) 461-3220

There is no deferral or delay in making a regular blood donation after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine. CCP donors who have received the COVID-19 vaccine may be eligible to continue donating CCP. To confirm your eligibility email [email protected] or call (937) 461-3220.
