There is a shortage of blood in the community, especially the O blood group (O positive and O negative types), so CBCC is urging O donors to donate blood as soon as possible.
More public drives can be found at Community Blood Center of the Carolinas’ web site www.cbcc.us. CBCC has donation centers in Charlotte, Concord, Gastonia, Hickory, and Union County (http://www.cbcc.us/about/donor-center-hours.php for center hours).
Call 704-972-4700 or go to www.carolinadonor.org to make an appointment at any location.
*Please note the Community Blood Center of the Carolinas' minimum weight requirement for blood donors is 120 pounds.
