St. Marys Huntley Knights of Columbus Blood Drive

Come join us on Saturday, September 10 and help give the gift of life by donating blood at our 9/11 Commemorative Blood Drive.

Help save a life and show how beautiful life is and the kindness we have in our hearts by donating the life-giving gift of blood on behalf of those who perished on 9-11. Each donor will receive a commemorative “Remember 9-11” T-shirt as our way of saying “Thank you for your life-saving blood donation”.

On display during this event will be an American flag that has flown above our nation’s capitol and another that commemorates the names of all those who perished during the tragic events of 9-11-2001.
