Please join us for a blood drive at Galax Public Library on Thursday, August 7, 2025 from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Make your appointment online at RedCrossBlood.org and enter: GPL. Streamline your donation experience and save up to 15 minutes by visiting RedCrossBlood.org/RapidPass to complete your pre-donation reading and health history questions on the day of your appointment. Those who come to give will receive a $15 e-gift card to a merchant of choice. Plus, in August, the Red Cross will perform free A1C testing, commonly used to screen for prediabetes and diabetes, on successful donations. (Do not fast before you donate; one test result per donor in a 12-month period.) For details, visit RedCrossBlood.org/Test.
