LIMA, Ohio - Every two seconds, someone in the United States
needs a blood transfusion. Lima Memorial Health System (LMHS)
encourages you to give the gift of life by donating blood at an
American Red Cross Blood Drive Wednesday, Dec. 22 from 10 a.m. to 4
p.m. in the Auxiliary Conference Center, located on the ground

More than 38,000 blood donations are needed every day and 1 in 20
