MADISON-LifeSouth Community Blood Centers made the conscious decision to open a second location in Madison at 12060 County Line Road Suite F, and now the organization is hosting a grand opening blood drive on Good Friday, April 2nd from 10:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.
“There is no doubt we have struggled with blood donation recently,” Kami May, District Community Development Coordinator said.
With recent winter storms and COVID-19, LifeSouth has been placed in an Emergency Appeal, which means there is a less than two-day blood supply on the shelves for area hospitals.
May says this center will provide blood products to Huntsville Hospital, Madison Hospital, Crestwood Medical Center, and Athens-Limestone Hospital
Community drives will allow people in the community to gather for one common cause and have a little fun in the process. LifeSouth will be following all CDC, state, and city regulations as it pertains to COVID-19.
Community Drive:
April 2nd 10am-6pm
NEW LifeSouth Madison Popup Blood Center
12060 County Line Road Suite F
