BloodCenter of Wisconsin is seeking blood donations from community individuals to prevent a shortage in blood supply in the face of Thursday’s snow and rain.
BloodCenter had to cancel blood drives and also experienced cancellations of donor appointments because of the winter weather. The cancellations will result in an anticipated deficiency of more than 1,000 units of blood during the next two days which could lead to a shortage for patients in need, the organization said Thursday.
