Due to a critically low supply of blood in the DC area, we are still holding our spring blood drive and need your participation! 

The blood drive will take place in a bloodmobile parked in the EDCJCC parking lot. Along with their regular set of precautions, Inova is taking many additional steps to ensure that donors are completely safe during this public health emergency. Please visit Inova's website for a comprehensive list of additional precautions they are taking at this time.  

It's safe, easy, confidential, and extremely rewarding. The EDCJCC partners with Inova Blood Services to bring skilled technicians and top-of-the-line equipment for our quarterly blood drives. 

A few facts about donating blood:

- One blood donation can save four lives 
- All donations stay in the Washington, DC area 
- Every 17 seconds, someone in the DC area needs a blood donation 
- One out of 10 people will need a donation before the age of 70 
- The body quickly replaces the amount of blood given during the donation
