Blood drive gets 31 donations

A Red Cross blood drive Oct. 7 at Hillsboro Mennonite Brethren Church collected blood donations from 31 people, co-chairmen Gladys Funk and Shirley Kasper said in a letter.

“We can feel proud we did our civic duty and helped to ensure lifesaving blood is available for patients in hospitals throughout our area,” they wrote.

The next blood drive in Hillsboro will be Dec. 9 at Parkview Mennonite Brethren Church.
