Join us for another Stronger Together Blood Drive, a powerful day of unity, compassion, and life-saving action. Hosted by The B Strong Group and other community advocacy organizations, this event brings together our community to honor those living with sickle cell disease and to support the critical need for diverse blood donations and the need for sickle cell awareness in our community.
Every drop makes a difference—especially for patients who rely on closely matched blood for regular transfusions. By donating, you’re not only saving lives, you’re standing in solidarity with families like ours.
Let’s show what’s possible when we come together for a purpose bigger than us. Whether you’re a first-time donor or a returning hero, we can’t wait to see you there. Together, we are stronger. 💪🏾🩸
