Carolina Blood Drive Coming in June

March 20, 2014 | In Benefits & Work/Life, HR Events

Help those in need of lifesaving transfusions keep on Living the Carolina Way! Once again, UNC is partnering with the American Red Cross to help increase blood supplies on Tuesday, June 3 for the annual Carolina Blood Drive.

This year’s 26th annual Carolina Blood Drive will be held on Tuesday, June 3, from 7 a.m. – 6 p.m. at the Dean E. Smith Center. UNC faculty and staff have been coming out every summer to make this drive a success. Your support helps the Red Cross increase their blood supply during the summer months when donations are typically low. 

Making it even easier to participate, volunteering and/or donating is considered work time with supervisor approval. Also, parking at the Smith Center is free that day. All participating donors will receive a free t-shirt. 

Please help ensure the blood supply doesn’t take a summer break. Spread the word throughout the UNC community to make this the most successful drive yet.

To make your donation appointment or to volunteer, visit the Carolina Blood Drive website.
