Medical City facilities across Dallas-Fort Worth will host blood drives in February and March to continue to bring aid to the region, according to a news release.
The details
Severe winter weather at the end of January has created a significant need for blood donations in North Texas after forcing many donor centers and blood drives to close for several days, according to previous reporting.
The winter months are already a slow time for blood donor turnout, which is why Medical City officials are asking for eligible donors to consider donating at one of these drives.
Locations and dates for upcoming blood drives include:
