Blood Drives

HOME / COMMUNITY / BLOOD DRIVES

When our community needs us most, we are here to answer.

The Ridgewood YMCA has partnered with the American Red Cross to hold critically needed blood drives at several of our branches throughout the year. As the COVID-19 public health crisis spread, many places—like schools and churches—that typically host blood drives were closed for most of 2020, exacerbating an already urgent need for blood and locations to collect it.

Now more than ever, we need one another. A single donation can save up to three lives. Sign up for an upcoming blood drive today!

UPCOMING BLOOD DRIVES:

All drives are scheduled for 9:00AM-2:00PM and will occur in either the gymnasium or New Program Room.
