October 17, 2023 9:00 am – 3:00 pm
D10 Como Park is partnering with the American Red Cross and the Como Zoo & Conservatory to host a community blood drive at the Zoo, 9am-3pm. Reservations required.
With the pandemic lingering and so many still working from home, workplace blood drives have all but vanished, affecting the Red Cross’ reserve levels. Community blood drives are the perfect opportunity to take a break from the home office or start a fall trip to the zoo! If you’re interested in volunteering at the check-in table, you can reach out to district10@district10comopark.org.
