Team Up With Local Firefighters To Save Lives

On Tuesday June 17, from 3:00pm-7:00pm, the Bristol Kendall Fire Department will be sponsoring their first blood drive to support the Heartland Blood Center. The event will take place at the Bristol Kendall Fire Department Station 2, 2101 McHugh Road, Yorkville. Participants who donate blood will also receive a $5 gift card compliments of Subway. The Bristol Kendall Fire Department is excited to partner with the community to donate blood and benefit the many sick and injured who need lifesaving blood transfusions to sustain life.  The department will also have the fire vehicles on display at the event as well as numerous public education resources for the community. Any questions about the event can be directed to Steve Andel, Bristol Kendall Fire Department Public Education Coordinator at 630-553-6186 or by email sandel@bristolkendallfire.com. Additional information about Heartland Blood Center, donating blood, or frequently asked questions about blood donation and blood donation eligibility can be found on the web at www.heartlandbc.org.
