The Algoma Youth Club is helping with the critical need for blood donations during the COVID-19 pandemic that has affected the public's involvement in the past two months. The American Red Cross will be in Algoma next Wednesday from 1:15 until 6 pm as the Youth Club will host the event. Youth Club and Parks Director Sara Robertson says the Red Cross is putting special procedures in place to ensure the safety of donors, volunteers, and staff.
Robertson notes that appointments are preferred and can be done so online at redcrossblood.org and searching for the blood drive by zip code. All blood types are critically needed at this time.
