Canadian Blood Services

Laura Ashton, Community Development Coordinator for Canadian Blood Services visited our club on September 14th.  Canadian Blood Services is a national not-for-profit, charitable organization whose sole mission is to manage the blood and blood products supply for Canadians.  The organization collects aproximately 850,000 units of blood annually and processes it into the components and products that are administered to thousands of patients each year.  Canadian Blood Services ensures blood safety through effective screening and testing processes.  The gift of blood could make the difference between life and death for people.   Thank you Laura for sharing the mission and need for this essential service with our club.
