January Is Blood Donation Month: Give Blood, Save Lives
January is Blood Donation Month—a time to raise awareness about the ongoing need for blood donations and the powerful impact one simple act can have. At Kearney County Health Services, we’re proud to partner with the American Red Cross to host a local blood drive and invite our community to come together to help save lives.
Join Us for a Community Blood Drive
We will be hosting a **Blood Drive on Wednesday, January 28, from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM at KCHS**. Blood donations are essential every day—for emergency care, surgeries, cancer treatments, and patients with chronic illnesses. A single donation can help multiple patients, making each donor a vital part of the care journey.
Appointments are encouraged to help keep the drive running smoothly.

Why Blood Donation Matters
Blood cannot be manufactured—it can only come from generous donors. Hospitals rely on a steady supply to care for patients during emergencies and planned procedures alike. Seasonal challenges, winter weather, and illness can all affect donation levels, which is why January is such an important time to give.
Whether you donate regularly or are considering donating for the first time, your contribution truly matters.
Thinking About Donating for the First Time?
Donating blood is a safe process, and the Red Cross team is there to guide you every step of the way. Most appointments take about an hour from start to finish, and donors are encouraged to eat well, hydrate, and bring a photo ID.
If you’ve ever wondered whether donating blood is right for you, this is a great opportunity to learn more and make a meaningful difference.
Thank You for Supporting Our Community
We are grateful to everyone who donates, shares information, or helps spread the word. Community blood drives help ensure that lifesaving care is available when it’s needed most, close to home.
We hope you’ll consider joining us on January 28 and being part of something that truly saves lives.
