Blood donations typically decrease during the summer. To combat this, Carter BloodCare is offering incentives to donors. Those with O negative blood type will receive a $50 e-gift card, while donors on Mondays or Fridays in July will get a $25 e-gift card. Donors can also receive a stainless steel canteen, while supplies last.
Carter BloodCare will host a donation event, where people can sign up for time slots between 10:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. Further details about the event and donation process are available from Carter BloodCare.
Donation opportunities are being made available in southern Denton County, with a specific event scheduled at Lakeside in Flower Mound.
