The Central Illinois Community Blood Center will be hosting two blood drives this week in Christian County.

The first drive will be on Tuesday from 12:30 to 6:30 p.m. at Edinburg High School. The Bloodmobile will be parked at the high school, and all presenting donors will receive a free t-shirt.

Then on Friday, there will be a blood drive at Davis Memorial Christian Church at 1500 West Franklin St. in Taylorville. All presenting donors at this blood drive will receive a special edition St. Patrick’s Day t-shirt.

Donors must be at least 17-years-old, but 16-year-olds can donate with parental consent. For more information, you can call 800-747-5401.
