Oyster Bay Town Councilwoman Laura Maier and the Town Board recently partnered with the New York Blood Center to collect 68 pints of blood at a recent Collection Drive at the Town’s Hicksville Athletic Center. These donations can save up to 204 lives.
“Blood donations are critical in helping to secure necessary blood transfusions for patients in hospitals. As blood supplies remain extremely low and the New York Blood Center recently announced an Emergency Blood Shortage, it is so important to help those in need and host these Blood Drives as often as we can,” said Councilwoman Maier. “Just one pint of blood can save up to three lives. We thank everyone who donated the gift of life at our recent blood drive.”
