One pint of blood donated can save up to three lives and blood banks are in need of replenishment, according to Kaiser Permanente officials, who are hosting the event.
“Blood needs to be replenished,” said Kaiser Permanente Blood Donor Center Recruiter Socque Bellosillo in an earlier interview. “We spend millions of dollars each year buying the blood from the Red Cross. If people donate, we’d save a lot of money.”

Participants must be seventeen years old and above and have a photo I.D., and all donors are set to receive a t-shirt for their donation.
Individuals who have received a tattoo within the last year or suffered a heart attack, stroke or certain health issues are unable to donate, officials added.
