In collaboration with Héma-Québec and Église Le Chemin, we are offering two blood donation clinics per year.
Héma-Québec has been pursuing the goal of convincing 7,000 people in Québec to donate blood for the first time. The challenge is well underway, but it is important to stick together to keep our collective blood supply afloat. In this sense, each person who breaks the ice and makes an appointment plays a decisive role. If you are afraid of the needle, know that the people on site are qualified to supervise this experience. They will reassure you, and you will feel the great pride of having given!
In order to avoid line ups and respect your busy schedule, we have set up an appointment system. This approach, adopted due to the pandemic, makes the experience of donating blood even easier for everyone. To make an appointment before going for a blood drive, you can do it easily online: www.hema-quebec.qc.ca/trois-facons-simples.fr.html or by phone at 1 800 343-7264 (BLOOD).
