BLOOD DONORS NEEDED IMMEDIATELY
Approximately every minute of every day, someone in Canada needs blood. In fact, per a recent poll, 52 per cent of Canadians say they, or a family member, have needed blood or blood products for surgery or for medical treatment.
In Guelph alone, we need over 1000 new blood donors this year to make sure that we have enough blood on hand for local patients. Across Canada, over 100, 000 new blood donors are need this year as each year 40% of our donors do not return.
