Local organizations encouraged to ‘adopt’ a blood donor clinic

With the giving season upon us, officials with Canadian Blood Services are reminding central Albertans and local businesses and organizations to consider giving blood during the holiday season.

‘Adopting’ a blood donor clinic is another way for organizations to get involved in the Partners for Life initiative. One such clinic taking place on Saturday, November 18 has been adopted by YogaNation, where an employee there who lost a sibling to a tragic motorcycle accident, is donating blood in honour of her late brother.
