EMC Lifestyle - In an appeal to the public, Jennifer Heale of Canadian Blood Services is asking people support the Feb. 15 blood donor clinic in Arnprior.

The clinic, sponsored by the Arnprior Rotary Club, runs 1:30 to 4 p.m. and 5 to 8:30 p.m. at the Nick Smith Centre.

"As you may know, it takes several donations to help save a single patient," she says.

"Canadian Blood Services is asking all blood donors to rally together with their friends and family members to help make the Feb. 15 blood donor clinic in Arnprior a success."

Heale notes the clinic is currently booked at 64 per cent of its goal.
