Even if you bleed green and yellow, the Lane Blood Center will take it.
And it will be easy to donate some of that diehard Duck blood this week and next, when the center’s mobile blood donation vehicle will be parked at the Lillis Business Complex on East 13th Avenue. The Bloodmobile will be available from noon to 4 p.m. on both days: Friday, June 19, and Monday, June 29.
A third date in July is tentatively planned. More details on that will be available soon.
June is the busiest month of the year for Lane County blood needs. The campus visits are important to the Lane Blood Center’s ability to meet those needs.
To help encourage donations, the blood center is offering a restaurant certificate to people donating on June 19. The promotion is tied to Father’s Day, June 21, and donors can use the coupon to treat dad to a burger on his special day.
Also, anyone who donates blood before July 26 will receive a free pass to the Lane County Fair.
