Before the blood drive, please take a few steps to ensure that things go smoothly on the day of our blood drive.

  1. Drink plenty of water or juice the night and morning before you donate.
  2. Eat a well-balanced meal around 2-3 hours before giving.
  3. Bring your photo ID - Photo ID is now required for all donors.

To schedule an appointment for a donation, feel free to call our Contact Center at 417-227-5006 or sign up online by clicking HERE.  See you at the blood drive!

 

If you recently made a blood donation, or if you have already scheduled an appointment to donate blood, please accept our thanks on behalf of the patients whose lives you may have touched.  If you have been told previously by Community Blood Center or another blood center that you should never donate blood, please disregard this message.  Those who are in generally good health and meet the age and weight requirements may be eligible to donate blood.

A photo ID is required to be presented prior to donation.
