Give Blood to Save a Life on October 14, 2016

On Friday October 14th you can give blood to save a life. Paul Rushforth Real Estate is holding a blood drive at Ottawa Permanent Blood Collection Center. Book your appointment in advance and join us in our efforts to help patients of all kinds!

It only takes 5 – 10 minutes to donate, and you can choose to donate blood or platelets – both are needed. We’ll have special treats available for donors to snack on during your quick rest afterwards. Choose your favourite from our selection of pizza, donuts, cookies, and juice boxes.

If you’ve never donated before, you should know that almost everyone is able to continue with their day normally after donating, including driving themselves home. The only thing is that you should avoid strenuous exercise for 8 hours afterwards.
