Community Blood Center Blood Drive

The National WWI Museum and Memorial is hosting a blood drive in partnership with the Community Blood Center. This is a meaningful opportunity to give back while learning about medical history—did you know that major advances in blood storage and emergency medical care emerged from World War I? By donating, you'll be supporting those in need today while honoring the evolution of these life-saving practices. Whether you're a regular blood donor or considering giving for the first time, this is a convenient way to contribute to your community without traveling elsewhere. The drive takes place at the Museum and Memorial, so you might even explore the exhibitions before or after your donation. It's a straightforward way to make a real difference, and the staff will guide you through the simple process.
