On Monday, April 12th, our neighbors ZGF will host a blood drive.
The American Red Cross will have a bus parked outside of the lobby.
March is Red Cross Month. If you’ve never donated blood before, now’s the time to do it! I do this at least twice a year, and can promise you that you’ll have an instant feeling of gratification after doing so!
Please contact Brenda Griffiths at ZGF to schedule an appointment time for yourself: 503.863.2304
