We invite all parishioners and friends to consider donating a pint of blood in order to save another person’s life.

On Sunday, August 2 from 9 am to 3 pm, our parish will partner with the New York Blood Center for a major blood donor drive in San Damiano Hall. There is a critical blood shortage in New York City and many patients awaiting surgeries or transplants are in dire need of blood donor donations. The New York Blood Center needs at least 40 pints of blood for this blood donor drive. Please ask family members, friends, co-workers and anyone willing to offer a pint of blood.

Advance registration is required and please complete the initial registration form below or see Father Brian in-person who will fill out your registration form. Please be patient because each donor is required to fill out a questionnaire before donating blood. Some of the questions are personal but need to be asked in order to have healthy blood donations.

Again, please be patient and understanding regarding the questionnaire. For more information,  please call Father Brian at 212-736-8500 ext. 232 or email him at bjordan@stfrancisnyc.org.
