By supporting our community blood program and sponsoring regular blood drives, your organization can be part of a lifesaving network of Blood Center friends and allies. Our mobile blood program makes it easy for businesses, schools, churches and other organizations to conduct a blood drive any day of the year by bringing the drive to you. We can set up the drive inside your building or park one of our colorful mobile busses right outside.
To book a blood drive, please call Valerie Mascorro, who will put you in touch with the representative for your area. She can be reached at (504) 592-1561 or emai

Your representative will work with you to coordinate the date and time of your drive, as well as to supply you with materials to promote the drive.
