Monticello Blood Drive Collects 30 Pints of Blood

Dear Editor,
Our last blood drive for 2019 was held on the 11th of October, at the Zwingli Church. The kind staff at the church allowed us to move out of the basement, due to flooding, and take over the first floor. We had a nice, dry place to entertain our hard-working Red Cross staff and blood donors.
Thank you to the 31 people who took time out of their day to give blood. Your effort brought in 30 pints of blood, which can be used to help as many as 90 people. That is a lot of positive impact on a lot of people!
