Although the cold season makes you want to stay bundled up, the need for blood products does not decrease. By donating blood this winter, it becomes possible to provoke a wave of human warmth of inestimable value.
The students of École du Tourne-Vent invite you to their blood drive, which will be held in collaboration with the City and the FADOQ of Sainte-Julie, on Tuesday, March 21, between 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. It will take place in the school gymnasium which is located at 2300, rue de Genève in Sainte-Julie. The objective of this event is to welcome 100 donors.
Héma-Québec recommends making an appointment before coming to a blood drive. You can do it easily online: www.hema-quebec.qc.ca/trois-facons-simples.fr.html or by phone at 1 800 343-7264.
This winter, 2,000 people who have never donated blood are being tracked each month. The answer to this call will lead us to an optimal level of reserve. This mobilization between people who donate regularly and the new people who will be added will therefore allow Héma-Québec to pursue its mission, which is to effectively meet the daily needs of hospitals. Héma-Québec is counting on the generosity of thousands of people.
Before showing up, it is recommended that you check your eligibility at www.hemaquebec.qc.ca, section Donors > Blood > Can I donate? If questions remain, you can contact Donor Customer Service at 1 800 847-2525.
