Blood donation takes less than an hour and can save up to three lives. More than 250 blood donations are needed each day to support patients in our community. There is no substitute for blood. Inova is experiencing a severe blood shortage in our community and we are urgently requesting your help. Your donation can save up to three lives. All blood types are needed but there is a desperate need for Type O and Type B blood.
