It’s a throwback to the MASH days this Memorial Day weekend at all Florida’s Blood Centers branch locations. For four days, Thursday, May 24, through Monday, May 28, all registered blood donors will be given a free commemorative MASH T-shirt and a $10 gas card. Veterans are encouraged to participate along with all eligible blood donors.

Call toll free 1-888-9DONATE (1-888-936-6283) and tell blood center employees that you want to find a location near you to donate.

Florida’s Blood Centers must make sure that all hospitals have an adequate supply at all times. Donations will go to local hospitals served by Florida’s Blood Centers within the next couple of days to patients who may need immediate transfusions.
