UPDATE:
After sharing the urgent need following the accident, our community responded with overwhelming compassion. Every single one of our donor centers filled up with people ready to help.
We are beyond grateful for the incredible turnout, the patience, the kindness, and the selfless donors who came in immediately when it mattered most.
Because of the amazing response, we are currently experiencing very full schedules and longer wait times. If you werenโt able to donate yesterday, please consider coming in later this week or next week to help keep donations flowing steadily and reduce the wait for everyone.
The need doesnโt end after one day โ your donation continues to save lives all week long.
Thank you for being the heart of this community. ๐ฉธโจ

Appointments recommended. Walk-ins welcome as space allows.

๐จ EMERGENCY NEED FOR BLOOD DONORS ๐จ
This morning, a dense fog led to a devastating chain-reaction crash on Hwy 58 involving 30โ40 vehicles. Several people were injured and are now receiving care at Kern Medical.
Hereโs the hard truth: our blood supply was already critically low due to severe weather disrupting shipments from outside the area. This accident is draining what little inventory we had left.
We urgently need O-Negative, O-Positive, and A-Positive bloodโbut every blood type is needed right now.
If you can safely travel, please come donate today. Walk-ins are welcome.
Your donation could be the difference between life and loss.
