Donate blood; community drive event set for Sept. 30

Every two seconds, someone in America needs blood. You can help by donating blood through your local American Red Cross. Giving blood is easy, and it takes about an hour.

Give blood to help someone in need. It could be a friend, neighbor or a stranger.

Make an appointment to donate by visiting redcrossblood.org; sponsor code: AuburnWA or call 1-800-RED CROSS today.

The next Auburn community blood drive is 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 30, at Satguru Ram Singh Satsang, Langer Hall, 4511 South 360th St., Auburn.
