CGH Blood Drive

The Mississippi Valley Regional Blood Center (MVRBC) urges all eligible donors, to donate at CGH Medical Center’s upcoming community blood drive. The drive is in the CGH Ryberg Auditorium, 100 E. LeFevre Road, Sterling. In addition to whole blood and double red cell donations, platelets will also be collected – something that could only be donated previously by driving to Davenport or Peoria. All presenting blood and platelet donors will receive a gift as a thank you from various sponsors. As an extra thank you for helping people in our community, each donor will earn points as part of the IMPACT Loyalty Program for exclusive donor gifts through the Mississippi Valley Regional Blood Center. Appointments are appreciated, but walk-ins are welcome. Individuals who have not donated with the MVRBC in the past will need to bring a photo ID to the blood drive to get registered. To schedule an appointment to give blood, please contact Michelle Nelsen at (815) 625-4790, ext. 6879; Connie VonHolten at (815) 625-0400, ext. 5425; or visit www.bloodcenterimpact.org and use code 3591.
