In almost 50 years, the South Texas Blood & Tissue Center has become much more than the community blood bank its founders envisioned in 1973.
The well-attended Red & White Ball Kickoff was held on Thursday, May 13 at the Donor Pavilion where it was announced that proceeds from this year’s ball will help open a new blood donor center to help address needs of the community’s fast-growing population.
With the demand for blood soaring, the South Texas Blood & Tissue Center is fighting an expected seasonal drop in donations over Passover and Easter Week.
