Sacred Heart and the Knights of Columbus Annual Blood Drive
July 25 @ 1:00 pm – 6:00 pm
Sacred Heart Church, in collaboration with the Knights of Columbus, Council 9094, will host a community blood drive in partnership with the American Red Cross. The event will take place on Friday, July 25, 2025, from 1 PM to 6 PM at Sacred Heart Church in d’Iberville.
“Sacred Heart Church parishioners and the Knights are committed to strengthening our community by helping to meet the needs of hospitals and patients through blood donations,” said Albert Allegue, Grand Knight. “This blood drive is an opportunity for parishioners, neighbors, and local businesses to come together and save lives.”
Blood is a perishable product that can only be obtained from volunteer donors. With someone in the U.S. needing blood every two seconds, it is crucial to replenish blood supplies constantly, according to the Red Cross.
“We urge community members to donate blood to ensure that patients in local hospitals have a sufficient supply ready before emergencies arise. There’s no better feeling than knowing that your blood donation could give someone a second chance at life.”
The Red Cross states that donors of all blood types are needed, particularly those with types O negative, A negative, and B negative.
