City of Asheboro Holiday Blood Drive

December 12, 2023 @ 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM

Heroes come in all shapes and sizes. They don’t wear capes or special suits, and their badge of honor is the bandage that shows they gave the gift of life. The community is invited to become a hometown hero and answer the call of patients in need by donating blood on December 12 th , from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm at The City of Asheboro Recreation Center Gym located at 148 North Street, Asheboro, NC.

Donating blood is one of the simplest things a person can do to help save a patient’s life. For the hour it takes to give blood, there could be a whole community of people thankful for another birthday given to their loved one.
