Blood Drive This Friday

The event takes place at Candlewood Middle School in Dix Hills

The Half Hollow Hills School District is holding a blood drive at Candlewood Middle Schools on Friday from 2:30-7:30 p.m.

The event gives community members the chance to help neighbors and friends, as there are local students and a family in need, organizers say. The blood drive comes at a time when the community blood supply is low because of the recent storm when similar events were cancelled, according to the New York Blood Center.

One donation can save three lives, the Blood Center points out.
