Canadian Blood Services (CBS) are bringing another blood donation clinic to Owen Sound next month.
A media release from CBS says a blood donation clinic will be held Wendesday, August 27 from 2-7 p.m. at the Owen Sound Legion.
The media release shares that "advancements in medicine, shifting demographics, and greater diversity mean that patient needs are changing."
To meet those growing demands, CBS says it's taking action. They've set an ambitious goal of one million new donors in the next five years.
Only 2 per cent of eligible people in Canada donate blood according to CBS.
