This is from the Local News front page of The Villages Daily Sun the November 23, 2019.

It also mentions that their four blood drives this year collected 1,033 pints.

It was very slow at the Oneblood donor center on Tuesday. Glad they got a lot of donations somewhere else.

That's fantastic. Some don't realize how important it is to donate. 1 pint can save up to 3 lives and really about an hour of your time.
