Lifestream’s 9 Cities Blood Drive Challenge starts July 1

Lifestream Blood Bank's 10th annual 9 cities Blood Drive Challenge kicks off on July 1.
From July 1 to August 31, the Coachella Valley's nine cities take part in a friendly competition to see which community will get the most involved in collecting blood donations.
"This two month initiative is about the importance of community well-being. For the benefit of patients in need who are in peril without a safe, ample blood supply being available, we ask that you be a visible, outspoken advocate within your community for the cause of voluntary blood donation," reads the announcement by Lifestream.
All donors receive, while supplies last, a special edition, Nine Cities T-shirt.

NOTE: You CAN donate blood whether or not you’ve received a COVID-19 vaccination.
