Carthage Community Blood Drive Oct. 15

October 15 @ 10:30 am - 4:30 pm

Football fans, here’s your chance to get in the game for life and score some Chiefs apparel. The Community Blood Center of the Ozarks, the sole supplier of blood, platelets, and plasma to patients at 45 area healthcare facilities, invites you to make a life-saving touchdown for local patients. Join us at the upcoming blood drive in Carthage on Tuesday, October 15.

All successful donors will receive an all-new Kansas City Chiefs Kingdom T-shirt, while supplies last. Donors can also enter for a chance to win a game day package that includes two tickets and a parking pass to Kansas City’s December 21, 2024, game against the Houston Texans. The game package is valued at $800.

Donors with Community Blood Center of the Ozarks help provide every drop of blood for patients at Mercy Hospital Carthage, Freeman Hospital, Mercy Hospital Joplin, as well as dozens of healthcare facilities across the Ozarks. Carthage area residents will have the opportunity to donate at the following location:

“The Chiefs promotion highlights the importance of teamwork, both on the field and in our communities. Just as the Chiefs rely on each other to win games, our local hospitals depend on us for lifesaving blood, and we depend on community members to generously give the gift of life,” said Michelle Teter, Media Relations Representative at Community Blood Center of the Ozarks. “Donating blood is more than a simple act of kindness; it is a life-saving play. Be a champion and make a difference in your community when you donate with CBCO.”
