This National Blood Donor Week, taking place from June 8-14, Canadian Blood Services is celebrating the generosity of the more than 400,000 donors who currently sustain Canada’s blood and plasma supply.

During this week, a special donation event will be held at the St. John’s Donation Centre (7 Wicklow Street) on Saturday, June 13 at 11 AM to mark the 20th anniversary of Jill Snow, from St. John’s, receiving life-saving transfusions.
