NORTH MYRTLE BEACH: Spread the Love This Valentine’s Day!

Valentine’s Day feels like it’s just around the corner, and what better way to celebrate the season of love than by giving the gift of life? That’s right, the Myrtle Beach Area Chamber of Commerce has organized a special Valentine’s blood drive, hopping to get the community involved to make a difference! Mark your calendars – this heartfelt event is all set to take place on February 13 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at The Blood Connection in North Myrtle Beach.

Why Donate? It’s Personal!

Each blood donation collected during this drive will go straight to one of the four local hospitals in the Grand Strand area, providing critical support to those in need. It’s a simple yet significant way to show your compassion and help save lives right in your own backyard. Plus, as a sweet perk for participating, every donor will receive an eGift card as a thank-you for their generosity! What a lovely reward for such a noble act!

Ready to Roll? Register Ahead!

This isn’t just any ordinary blood drive; it’s a chance to spread love and kindness! And don’t forget, if you plan on donating, advance registration is highly encouraged. Letting the organizers know you’re coming can help keep things smooth and breezy, minimizing your wait time on that special day. You can easily register through their website or give them a call. Each contribution counts, and every bit makes a difference.

Previous Blood Drives – Successful and Heartwarming!

25 units of blood while Coastal Grand Mall reached its target of 70 units, making the total collection soar past 100 units from both drives. Isn’t that incredible?

Bonus for Early Birds!

For those who already donated earlier in January, there have been exciting incentives too! Donors were blessed with a $10 Amazon gift card, plus a chance to win one of three $5,000 gift cards. That’s a win-win situation if there ever was one!

The Need for Blood Never Stops!

As you may know, blood types are always in demand, especially during events like Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October. So here’s your chance to step up and help change lives. Donors can schedule appointments easily using the Red Cross Blood Donor app, their website, or just by calling 1-800-733-2767 with the sponsor code WMBF. It’s all about making it convenient for you while improving the community’s health!

Stay Safe, Stay Informed!

While we’re all about spreading love, it’s also key to stay aware of local laws concerning safety. Did you know that in South Carolina, you can be charged with DUI even if you’re parked or sleeping in your vehicle? This applies in certain conditions. So, remember, being responsible is as important as being generous, especially when celebrating!

Join the Movement!

This Valentine’s Day, embrace the true spirit of love by rolling up your sleeves and donating blood. Join your friends and neighbors in this worthy cause. It’s time to make a difference together in North Myrtle Beach. So don’t hesitate, spread the word, gather a few friends, and let’s make this blood drive a resounding success!

Your heart, your love, and your blood can create a wave of positive change in the community. After all, love really is the best medicine!
