Every two seconds someone in the United States needs blood, and a single donation can help save the life of up to three people.

The pandemic has meant that there are fewer donation events and those events are only able to safely accommodate a portion the donors that they used to. This means that in the US there is currently a critical blood shortage. In an effort to help, Mueller Memorial is partnering with the American Red Cross to host a blood drive on Tuesday, June 14th from 9AM - 3PM at our location at 4738 Bald Eagle Ave. in White Bear Lake, MN. Our reception space, where the drive is held, is bright, comfortable and inviting.

Per Red Cross guidelines we will be able to safely and spaciously accommodate 36 appointments throughout the day. So, make sure to sign up soon to get the time that you want. You can easily make your required appointment by clicking here then selecting the Mueller Memorial drive. You can also direct friends or family to muellermemorial.com/blooddrive to make an appointment. Unfortunately, walk-ins cannot be received the day of the drive.

To be eligible to donate you must:

• Have waited at least 56 days since your last donation
• Be in good health and feeling well
• Be at least 16 years old
• Weigh at least 110 lbs.

Find out more about donation eligibility at the Red Cross website.

We know that no one wants to get a prick in the arm, but there is no replacement for human blood donation. Every day–every two seconds–patients with cancer, trauma, sickle cell anemia, burns, and other chronic illnesses rely on lifesaving treatment that can ONLY come from donors like you. It costs you nothing and to them it means everything. If you are able, please sign up for an appointment today.
