Huron-Bruce MP Ben Lobb adopts Kincardine blood donor clinic

Huron-Bruce MP Ben Lobb and his office have partnered with Canadian Blood Services to help ensure lifesaving blood products are available to hospital patients in need.

As part of his dedication to the community, Lobb has generously adopted the Kincardine blood donor clinic and committed to recruit new donors and fill appointments to help collect 173 donations at the clinic.

“We are pleased and proud to have the opportunity to help give life in this way,” says Lobb. "We are very excited about making a real difference in the lives of Canadian hospital patients. This year, 100,000 new blood donors are needed across Canada to meet patient needs — including 115 needed right here in our community. We invite Kincardine area residents to join us and make an appointment to donate blood.”

You can take part by making an appointment to Give Life at the Davidson Centre, Wednesday, Jan. 10, from 1:30-7:30 p.m. To discover all the ways you can help and to book your appointment, visit blood.ca.
