BYRON — The Rock River Valley Blood Center will host a Bleed for Weed blood drive Monday, Jan. 26, from noon to 6 p.m. at Prime Revival, 404 W. Blackhawk. Successful donors who are at least 21 years old will receive a voucher for a 100 mg edible or an eighth of flower from Lyfe Dispensary and a t-shirt while supplies last. Any donor who does not have a successful donation will receive a 30% discount for a future Lyfe Dispensary purchase. Appointments can be made by calling 815-965-8751 or visiting rrvbc.org, and walk-ins will be accommodated as the schedule allows.
Maggie Anderson, Marketing and Recruitment Specialist with the Rock River Valley Blood Center, said “Many people celebrate the holidays with friends and family, but for patients in hospitals, every day is a fight. Giving blood after the holidays ensures those in need get a second chance at life.”
