The Rock River Valley Blood Center (RRVBC) is experiencing a critical shortage of blood and platelets and urgently needs community support to replenish supplies. While all blood types are always needed, there is an immediate and critical need for platelets, as well as A-, B-, O-, and O+ red blood cells.
RRVBC urges eligible donors to visit one of its centers or blood drives to help meet the immediate need. Every donation is crucial to ensuring that patients in local hospitals receive the life-saving blood they depend on.
To schedule an appointment or get information about blood drives near you, call 815-965-8751. Walk-ins are welcome.
