Blood donor clinic a chance to make a difference

Twenty days into 2014, Canadian Blood Services asks: “How will you make a difference this year?”

It will hold a full blood donor clinic in the CAW Student Centre’s Ambassador Auditorium on Tuesday, January 21, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

For this clinic, the Canadian Blood Service will use its appointment system. It encourages donors to book appointments by calling 1-888-2DONATE (1-888-236-6283). Walk-in donors are still welcome but appointments will better accommodate donors' working schedules.

As with previous clinics, the Department of Human Resources encourages all eligible employees to participate in this worthwhile process and asks any employees who wish to donate to make the necessary arrangements with their supervisors regarding the possibility of extended lunch or break periods.
