“Community Blood Bank has partnered with the Sioux Falls Stampede for nearly 24 years to secure the community’s blood supply just before the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. With more people traveling on the roadways, a larger population in the Sioux Falls area, and the lack of blood donations for four days, there is a potential to deplete of community’s blood supply. The Sioux Falls Stampede provides a significant opportunity for community members to donate blood and impact local patients seeking medical care during this key holiday weekend,” states Ken Versteeg, Executive Director, Community Blood Bank. “We want to have a blood supply available to treat those serious medical issues and ready for the unexpected. Within 30 minutes you will provide a lifeline in up to 3 patients at our community hospitals. Giving blood is one of those special things that can be done every 56 days and really impact lives for a life-time. Join us to give the one gift that only can be found by volunteers rolling up their sleeves and donating blood.”
Donors must be at least 17 years old, 110 pounds or more and be in good general health the day of the donation. Please bring an ID with you. An individual can donate blood safely every 56 days. Community Blood Bank is the sole supplier of blood to Avera McKennan Hospital, Avera Heart Hospital, the V.A. Medical Center, Sioux Falls Surgical Hospital, Sanford Children’s and Sanford Health.
