Give the gift of life

Donate blood today
The Rhode Island Blood Center is holding a blood drive today (Monday) from 3 pm until 6 pm in the Community Room at the Charlestown Police Station (4901 Old Post Rd, across from Ninigret Park).

January has always been a challenge for collecting blood as the weather is poor, it is cold and flu season and after the holidays some donors may lose their giving spirit. To make January more visible in donors' minds it is officially National Blood Donor Month. As a special THANK YOU, Dunkin' Donuts generously gives every presenting donor who gives in the month of January a FREE pound of coffee.
