Give the Gift of Life: Upcoming Pointe Coupee Community Blood Drives

This October, our community has two opportunities to save lives through local blood drives hosted by Pointe Coupee Electric and Pointe Coupee General Hospital in partnership with The Blood Center. We are proud to see three Greater Pointe Coupee Chamber members working together to provide this important service to our community.

📅 Tuesday, October 14th🕙 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM📍 The Blood Center Bus will be parked in the Pointe Coupee Electric parking lot

Pointe Coupee General Hospital Blood Drive

📅 Monday, October 27th🕘 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM📍 The Blood Drive will be held inside the Hospital Chapel

💜 Why Donate? Every donation has the power to save up to three lives. By rolling up your sleeve, you’re directly supporting patients and families in our region. Plus, all donors will receive this year’s exclusive “Bat Fink” t-shirt as a thank-you gift.

💧 Helpful Tips for Donors:

• Eat a healthy meal before donating

• Stay well-hydrated

• Bring a photo ID

  
  

✨ Appointments & FastLane Pre-Screening

• Schedule your appointment in advance by scanning the QR code or visiting the link provided in the flyers.

• Save time by completing your FastLane pre-screening questionnaire on the day of the drive. (Walk-ins are also welcome, but appointments will be honored first!)

  
  

Let’s come together as a community to make a lifesaving difference. Mark your calendars and join us in supporting these important blood drives!
