You can give the gift of life over the holidays. A blood donor clinic is being held on Boxing Day, December 26, from 9am until 12:00pm at Temple Baptist Church on Quinn Dr. in Sarnia. Spokesperson Stephanie Wilkinson hopes at least 58 people will come out and donate. [audio mp3="http://blackburnnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/Wilkinson-4.mp3"][/audio] Wilkinson says collecting blood can be challenging over the holidays because many donors are travelling or busy with family. There's another mobile clinic coming up January 12 from 4:30pm until 7:30pm at the Dante Club in Sarnia. You can visit www.blood.ca for more information.
