Save Lives, Shake Your Thang: The Rolling Elvi & Sassyracs Blood Drive! The Krewe of the Rolling Elvi & the Sassyracs are teaming up with The Blood Center once again to fight the critical blood shortage—and we’re doing it NOLA style. The whole process takes about an hour (the actual donation is only about 10 minutes!), and appointments are highly recommended. Schedule in advance: https://www.tbcdonors.org/donor/schedules/drive_schedule/56231 Come for the good cause, stay for the party! This year’s drive features live bands, a local artist/vendor market, a raffle, and a spectacular dance showcase featuring some of the best krewes in New Orleans. Costumes highly encouraged—wear your favorite krewe gear! * Day-of prep: Complete your donor questionnaire online the morning of the drive. * Fuel up: Eat a hearty meal and drink plenty of fluids before you arrive. * ID check: Don't forget to bring a photo ID! Can't make it on August 16th or want to give blood early? You can still help our tally! Donate early at any Blood Center location and use code 214003 to credit the Rolling Elvi & Sassyracs Summer Blood Drive.
