Penn Medicine Lancaster General Health has scheduled more than a dozen blood drives in June and says it is encouraging community members to donate blood and platelets "as often as possible."
Nationwide, blood supplies remain concerningly low, and officials say donations typically decline in summer.
Donors in Lancaster County may give at a blood drive or at LG Health's Blood Donor Center. In either case, they must register beforehand, either online or by phone:
- Blood Donor Center: Click here or call (717) 544-0170
- Blood drives: Click here or call (717) 544-0177
Blood collected in Lancaster County stays here and is used by local health care providers.
