Donate a pint of blood at the Canton Public Library on Friday, August 26 any time between 11:00 AM and 4:45 PM, and you may win:

• Two tickets to Cedar Point
• Free gasoline for a year
• Free box of chocolates to everyone who donates (from Edible Arrangements)

Blood donations are the lowest seen by the American Red Cross in over a decade; the 43 hospitals in the tri-county area alone use 800 pints… per day! So, swear off caffeine and chocolate for the day, and eat high-iron foods like raisins, beef, broccoli, tomatoes and watermelon. Then come in and help save a life. Reservations are being accepted now: in person at the Reception Desk, by phone at 734-397-0999 ext. 1071, or by email to gladdenk@cantonpl.org.
