The Griffin Maks Community Blood Drive will take place on Tuesday, July 29th, between 2:00-7:00pm at Oakton Community Center, (program room west) in Skokie.

Summers are notoriously low for blood donations, yet the need stays the same year round.  The Maks family wants to honor their little boy Griffin by doing this blood drive because they know without blood donations, he would not be in remission from the leukemia he battled for years.

if that’s not enough to encourage, we’re also making it a celebration! Raffle, treats, and goody bags for our donors, plus meet the guest of honor as he gives out lemonade! Childcare will be available for parents who have the kiddos with them while they donate.

Appointments are preferred, though walk ins will be accommodated as quickly as we can. Please let me know if I can sign you up.  Here is the flyer: Griffin Maks Blood Drive PDF
