~ j~ll~¸ • ~ii!ii¸ !!'• ; •; i¸ Simpson Building Supply Company father-son team doing their part. II Through this non-profit community agency program, Mason General Hospital receives a weekly supply of new blood from the Puget Sound Blood Center in Seattle for the use of Mason County families. Mason County is one of seven counties -- King, Thurstorr, Kitsap, Skagit, Whatcom and Jefferson -- served by the equipment and staff of the central blood bank. Four times a year the unit comes to Shelton to collect blood for processing. It takes about 600 donors a year to provide Mason County's share of blood to the regional operation. In 1974 Mason County residents were transfused with 488 units of blood, while blood donors came to 514. So far in 1975-we have drawn a tutal of 272 units which is short of our 150 per quarter goal. Someone needs your help to live. Plan to give. Anyone interested in donating blood to this community effort should get in touch with the Senior Center, donor coordinators, and make an appointment for the next drawing which will be September 18. You may safely donate a unit up to five times a year. Because of the components of blood, the one pint you give may help save the lives of three people. Anyone who has received blood at Mason General Hospital has received a letter from the hospital stating the need for a certain number of people to donate in his behalf. This is simply another way to get more county residents involved in the blood program. Under'the new program there is,absolutely no charge for the blood itself and only a reduced fee is charged for the administration of the transfusion. Listed below are some of the organizations and employers in Mason County who have been participating in this program. Anyone else who wishes to take a more active part should contact Arnold Livingston at the I.W.A. Hall, 426-5360. Mason General Hospital, Shelton Chamber of Commerce, P.U.D.
