New York State Sen. Dean Murray (R-3rd District) recently held a Mobile Blood Drive in conjunction with the New York Blood Center at the Patchogue Family YMCA.
Entering the summer trauma season, blood is needed to save the lives of those who find themselves in emergency situations.
“Emergencies come along every day where the need for blood is a matter, at times, of life or death,” said a representative from the New York Blood Center.
The recent mobile blood drive yielded 21 pints of blood, which will save about 60 lives. “But there is a need for more,” said Murray. “I hope to partner again with New York Blood Center and John Borromeo, executive director of the Patchogue Family YMCA,” stated Murray.
In the meantime, Murray is teaming up with NYS Sen. Mario Mattera along with the New York Blood Center to sponsor the next Blood Drive on Saturday, July 13, 2024, at the Smith Haven Mall, 313 Smith Haven Mall, Lake Grove, NY 11755, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.. Walk-ins are welcome, but appointments are preferred. To register for an appointment please contact 1-800-933-2566 or visit www.nybc.org.
