The Hosmer community hosted a blood drive with Vitalant on January 6 at the Hosmer Fire Hall which helped collect a total of 42 units of blood products for patients in need.
A total of 32 individuals volunteered to donate blood, including one new donor. Ten were Power Red donors, which provide two doses of the red blood cells in highest demand.
Hosmer organizer Judy Eisenbeisz thanks all the volunteers.
The need for blood is constant and Vitalant strives to always keep a five-day supply of every blood type on the shelf to be able to meet the needs of patients across the region.
