Give the Gift of Blood on March 25

Canadian Blood Services will be holding a blood donation clinic in Martensville on March 25th at the North Ridge Community Centre with time slots available from 5:45pm to 7:55pm. The need for blood donation is always there, and when blood is required to save a patient’s life, multiple donors are needed, as seen below.

For those that have not donated in the past, the entire process takes just over one hour and in total, the blood donation consists of approximately 450ml, which is slightly less than half a litre or two cups. “This represents a small portion of the blood in a person’s body, as the average adult has about 5 litres,” the Canadian Blood Services website explains.

If you are unable to attend the clinic that will be taking place in Martensville, you can always go to the Canadian Blood Services office in Saskatoon, located at 1206 Emerson Avenue, where they hold donation clinics each week. “The need for blood is never ending. I have had leukemia and needed blood, and will eventually have heart surgery and will need it again and I am just one person. So if you can, please, please, please consider donating and saving lives,” former blood recipient Kristi Hofer commented.

To schedule an appointment, or for more information, visit www.blood.ca.

Shanine Sealey has always had a passion for reading and writing. Growing up with a librarian for a mother, and working in a library as her first job at age 15, that passion continued to grow. After moving to Martensville in 2006 and working at the StarPhoenix for several years, Shanine was given the opportunity to join the team at the Martensville Messenger in 2011. From there, she fell in love with the world of newspapers. In 2014, Shanine and her co-worker Jocelyn Ottenbreit decided to purchase the Martensville Messenger, as they both felt it was an important part of the community and they wanted to continue its legacy within the City. Shanine has had the opportunity to meet so many amazing members of this community because of the Martensville Messenger, which is something that she is extremely grateful for. Her responsibilities include; reporting on local news, weekly production of the newspaper and day to day operations within the business.
