St. Patrick Catholic Church will hold a blood drive Saturday, Dec. 1, from noon to 5 p.m. at the St. Patrick Parish Hall, 555 Del Mar Blvd. The drive is staged in cooperation with the South Texas Blood Bank.
The drive addresses a need to bolster low supplies that the blood bank usually faces during the holidays.
For information and to sign up to donate the gift of life, contact Liza Guzman of the South Texas Blood Bank (956) 763-7783 or St. Patrick parishioners Salo Otero at (956) 324-2432 or Cynthia Snyder at (956) 763-5065. Donors may also signup online at southtexasblood.org
Walk-ins are welcome to participate.
According to Guzman, “The blood bank is excited that St. Patrick Church has reached out to us. Blood donated during this and upcoming drives are for a one-year-old Laredo girl who is in need.”
