On Monday, September 19th, Lenski will host its Fall Blood Drive to benefit Children's Hospital from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm. The blood donation process takes about 30 to 45 minutes total, from arrival, paperwork, a brief interview to the actual blood draw. Donors should have something to eat and hydrate beforehand. We will have snacks available after your donation. Please know that 30 minutes of your time could mean a lifetime to a child in need!
