Did you know that just one blood donation could save up to three lives? Blood donations are needed for surgeries, cancer treatment, chronic illnesses, and traumatic injuries. Lifesaving care starts with one person making a generous donation.
Columbine Health Systems has partnered with Garth Englund Blood Center to make it easy and convenient to donate blood for those in need in our community. Walk-ins are welcome; however, appointments are strongly recommended. Three opportunities are being offered to give blood. Appointments can be made using the provided link for each date. (A UCHealth account is required to make an appointment.)
