Center to aid blood drive
Businesses at the Harbour Palms Center, 2471 Elk Grove Blvd., will participate in the Murphy 400 Fund Community Blood Drive from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Dec. 9.
The Black Horse, Original Pete's of Elk Grove, SportsCuts, Lyla's Mexican Grill, Port City Java, Postal Central and Table 260 will offer free and discounted food and services to everyone who gives a pint of blood at the bloodmobile parked in the parking lot.
The community blood drive was set up by Elk Grove Planning Commission member Tim Murphy to meet his goal of 400 blood donations by his 40th birthday. He started the year-long blood drive as a way to say thanks for the blood transfusions that saved his sons Declan, 9, and Jack, 8.
Donors must be healthy, at least 17 years old (16 with parental consent) and weigh 110 pounds or more. Photo identification is required. Child care will be available.
Appointments are not necessary.
For more information, call (800) 995-4420, ext. 11009.
