Miller Keystone Blood Center has issued an urgent appeal for donors of all blood types. More than 450 donors are needed every day. Donations decrease during the summer due to vacations and increased travel, accidents and seasonal illnesses.

Individual donors must be 16 years old (parental consent required) or older, weigh a minimum of 110 pounds, be feeling healthy and provide valid identification. They must not have donated in the past eight weeks.

For information or to schedule a donation, call 1-800-B-A-DONOR (223-6667).

Donors may also visit GIVEaPINT.org to schedule an appointment online or to find a blood drive in the community.
