La Grande Red Cross is looking to exceed 100 unit goal during upcoming blood drive in an effort to support medical needs.

Last year the La Grande location of the American Red Cross received 643 units of blood from five different drives spanning over seven days. For this particular blood drive they have a goal of receiving over 100 units per day, totaling 200 units for the two day period.

There is a high need for blood type “O” since it is the most universally compatible type of blood, although everyone is encouraged to donate.

The blood drive will be at the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in La Grande located at 1802 Gekeler Lane on September 14th from noon until 6 pm and September 15th from 9 am to 3 pm.
