SUMMARY:Quarterly Red Cross Blood Drive @ MCC Jumu’ahs
DESCRIPTION:As people of faith\, it is in our blood to help. With a 15-minute blood donation\, you can be part of a lifesaving journey that could save up to three lives. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe MCC community has saved nearly 420 lives!

Sign up at: HTTP://mcceastbay.org/blood-drive. Here are the Jumu’ah Friday prayer service times: HTTP://mcceastbay.org/prayer \n\n\n\nIn 2026\, MCC will proudly host these quarterly blood drives during Jumuah services from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. with our friends at the American Red Cross & Stanford Blood Center: \n\n\n\n\n\n\nFriday\, February 6\, 2026 (Stanford Blood Center)\nFriday\, May 22\, 2026 (American Red Cross)\nFriday\, July 31\, 2026 (American Red Cross)\nFriday\, September 25\, 2026 (American Red Cross)\nFriday\, December 11\, 2026 (American Red Cross)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe need for blood is constant\, and only volunteer donors can meet it for patients in our community.

SUMMARY:Quarterly Red Cross Blood Drive @ MCC Jumu’ahs
DESCRIPTION:As people of faith\, it is in our blood to help. With a 15-minute blood donation\, you can be part of a lifesaving journey that could save up to three lives. \n \n\n\nThe MCC community has saved nearly 400 lives! This is our 35th blood drive during Jumu’ah\, and each has always been fully booked! \n \n\n\nLet’s continue that trajectory at this blood drive and keep all our American Red Cross guests busy when they set up in our Banquet Hall from 11:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on three Fridays in 2027. Sign up at: HTTP://mcceastbay.org/blood-drive. Here are the Jumu’ah Friday prayer service times: HTTP://mcceastbay.org/prayer \n \n\n\nIn 2027\, MCC will proudly host these quarterly blood drives during Jumuah services from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. with our friends at the American Red Cross: \n \n\n\n\n\n\nFriday\, February 12\, 2027 (American Red Cross)\nFriday\, May 21\, 2027 (American Red Cross)\nFriday\, September 24\, 2027 (American Red Cross)\nFriday\, December 10\, 2027 (American Red Cross)\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nThe need for blood is constant\, and only volunteer donors can meet it for patients in our community. Nationwide\, someone needs a unit of blood every 2 to 3 seconds\, and most of us will need blood in our lifetime. A Power Red donation targets O-\, O+\, A-\, and B—only. It takes 20-30 minutes because donors give two units of concentrated Red Blood Cells\, and platelets and plasma are returned. Blood diversity is essential. Now more than ever\, the American Red Cross needs the help of black blood donors. \n \n\n\nBlood donors report feeling a strong sense of satisfaction after donating blood. Why? Because helping others in need feels good. \n \n\n\nIf you have visited India\, Pakistan\, or another high-risk malaria country and returned within the last 12 months\, you are not eligible to donate blood.
