Plymouth Mayor Robert Listenberger is continuing his commitment to saving lives by hosting the upcoming Mayor’s Blood Drive this Saturday, May 2.

The South Bend Medical Foundation will bring its mobile lab to the Plymouth Fire Station, located at 111 North Center Street. The drive will run from 8:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. (noon), allowing residents to give the precious gift of blood.

Health officials emphasize that donating blood directly impacts the local community, potentially saving the lives of friends, family members, and neighbors. According to medical statistics, someone in the United States needs blood every two seconds. Because blood cannot be manufactured in a lab, voluntary donations are the only way to ensure that local healthcare systems maintain an adequate supply for patients in need.

By participating in the Mayor's Blood Drive, donors help protect the community's blood supply. A single pint of donated blood can save up to three individual lives.

Residents are encouraged to stop by the Fire Station this Saturday morning to roll up their sleeves and help save a life.
