Pacific Palisades Woman’s Club will host a Community Blood Drive on Wednesday, March 27, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the clubhouse, located at 901 Haverford Avenue.
“The need for blood continues to be constant,” read an announcement from PPWC. “Please join us in saving lives. Come by our beautiful and spacious PPWC Clubhouse.”
Donors can choose between giving Power Red, a donation that collects the red cells but returns most of the plasma and platelets, or Blood, where approximately one pint of blood is given. This type of donation takes about an hour, according to the registration website.
Power Red donors must meet specific eligibility requirements, and have type A, B Neg or O blood.
Serving the community since 1925, PPWC is a nonprofit organization “dedicated to the enhancement and quality of life in the Palisades through education, recreation, beautification, community service and charitable cause,” according to its website.
