Blood donor clinic needs more appointments filled

More than 80 donations are needed at the next blood donor clinic in Kemptville.

Donations can help save the lives of people like Wyatt Lafontaine.  Wyatt was diagnosed at 10 months old in June of 2017 with infant acute lymphoblastic leukemia.  He spent several months at CHEO undergoing chemotherapy, with blood transfusions every few days.  Wyatt was in Orleans on December 24th thanking blood donors for their donations to Canadian Blood Services.

If you’d like to make a donation, the next clinic is scheduled for this Monday at the W.B. George Centre at Kemptville Campus.  Appointments are currently available online from 1:30pm to 3:40pm and from 5:30pm to 8:00pm. You can visit blood.ca or call 1-888-2-donate.
