Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood.

Patients need someone like you, a person willing to take a mere hour out of their day to perform the ultimate good deed by donating blood. Today they will be collecting blood donations at the Fort Meade in Sturgis from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm.

All healthy donors are urged to donate now; if you’ve had COVID-19 more than 10 days ago and your symptoms are resolving, you are eligible to donate. Whatever your COVID-19 vaccination status, you are ABSOLUTELY allowed to give blood or platelets.
