Village of Skokie Community Blood Drive Held at the Skokie Farmers’ Market


The Skokie Health Department, in partnership with LifeSource, will hold a community blood drive at the September 18, 2011 Skokie Farmers' Markets from 8 a.m. to 2  p.m. LifeSource’s mobile van will be onsite at the market for donors to easily and conveniently donate blood.

All healthy individuals are encouraged to take a few minutes to donate blood at the LifeSource mobile van. Blood is the gift of life and one donation can help save the lives of up to three people.  All individuals who donate blood will be entered in a raffle for a gift certificate to a Downtown Skokie restaurant.
