A safe and robust blood supply is a core component of our local health care system. Blood donations are one of the most important things you can do to help others in need. Blood must be available when we or our loved ones need surgery, give birth, or receive treatment for cancer or a chronic condition such as sickle cell disease.

Sadly, the United States is experiencing a significantly low blood supply, dropping to a concerning level that has not been seen in over a decade. To help fill the need, Southeast Georgia Health System will partner with the American Red Cross to host a community blood drive on Friday, January 21, 10:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m., in the Kemble Conference Room, 3011 Kemble Avenue, adjacent to the Brunswick Campus. Social distancing protocols will be implemented and face masks will be required.
