From Fremont Police
Due to high demand, the Fremont Police Department's Volunteer Unit is hosting a second blood drive this year.
The event will be on Friday, Nov. 9, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m and will be held at the Fremont Police Department (in the front parking lot), 2000 Stevenson Blvd. Look for the Red Cross Bus!
The event is open to the public and you can schedule an appointment at www.Redcross.org, enter the Sponsor Code: POLICE, or call (800-733-2767). You can also contact the Volunteer Unit to schedule an appointment at CARE@fremont.gov.
Donors are needed every day and Type O donors are in high demand. With the holidays nearing and recent storms back east, the demand is even greater.
