Owego Free Academy\u2019s Volleyball team is joining efforts with the American Red Cross to host a blood drive, planned for Friday, Aug. 16, from 1-6 p.m. at the Owego Moose Lodge, located at 3 Goodrich Rd. in Owego. To donate, visit www.redcrossblood.org\/give.html\/donation-time<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The girls from OFA Volleyball volunteer their time for the blood drive event, and they donate too, as well as their friends from other sports.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis effort teaches our youth the value behind donating blood and saving lives, and offers a way for them to give back to the community,\u201d said Heather Gunther, who is assisting with organizing the event.<\/p>\n

According to the American Red Cross, national blood supply has dropped 25% since July 1. All blood types are urgently needed.<\/p>\n

In thanks for coming out to help overcome the shortage in August, get a $20 Amazon.com<\/a> Gift Card by email. All donors at this drive will ALSO get a limited edition water bottle, all well helping the Owego volleyball team earn money.<\/p>\n

\u201cSave lives and help the community with your donation,\u201d the American Red Cross stated, in a press release.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>They continued, \u201cThe need for blood is constant, and only volunteer donors can fulfill that need for patients in our community. Nationwide, someone needs a unit of blood every two to three seconds and most of us will need blood in our lifetime.\u201d<\/p>\n
