Feb 07, 2023

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. – Cumberland County Public Library will host a Cape Fear Valley Blood Donor Center blood drive on Valentine’s Day, Feb. 14, from 8 a.m. – 12 p.m. at Headquarters Library, located at 300 Maiden Lane in Fayetteville.

This event is open to the public. Donors are urgently needed as blood levels dropped to historic levels during the pandemic and are still recovering.

Donors will receive a free T-shirt, one AMC movie ticket, and candy (while supplies last). Bring a form of photo identification and remember to eat a nutritious meal before donating blood.

To sign up, contact Traci Cardenas at tcardenas@cumberlandcountync.gov or (910) 483-7727, ext. 1347. Walk-ins are also welcome.
