Sioux Falls Family Vision Blood Donor Schedule

Midwest ENT & Allergy Blood Donor Schedule

Join Sioux Falls Family Vision and Midwest Ear, Nose, Throat, and Allergy to improve the condition of the comunity’s blood supply. Each donation will provide a special impact to our community patients at all our local hospitals. All those donating blood will receive a $10 D.Q. as a thank you gift.

“Donating blood is something very special that can only be provided by a volunteer. We rely upon donors to provide up to 550 donation per week to meet the needs of our hospital patients throughout the Sioux Falls region,” states Ken Versteeg, Executive Director Community Blood Bank. “It all begins with just one donation and with that gift, three patients lives will be given a chance at life! One person giving up just 30 minutes of their time can changes lives. We ask that you consider donating blood today for the first time or the perhaps the 22nd time. Know that each donation is precious to us and our community patients.”
