88.3 The Journey hosts Carter Blood Drive Nov 2

88.3 The Journey, a Christian radio station in Keene, Texas, starts the Carter

Blood Drive. This is where the community comes together to donate blood to the Carter Blood-care organization. Carter Blood-care is a nonprofit organization that helps those

who need blood.

This event will take place at the Chisholm Trail Academy parking lot, Chisholm

Trail Pkwy, Texas, from 8:00 am - 5:00 pm November 2. Everyone is encouraged to

come and donate. Kyle Hines, the music director for the station says that donors will receive a complimentary "on repeat" t-shirt as a thank you because they want to encourage more people to donate in the future.

In the United States, 32,000 pints of donated blood are used each day. These

donations help save millions of lives. With your donations, that number is expected to

increase. You can sign up in person at the event or online to give blood regularly. The

donation process is free and will go towards the Carter Blood-care organization who will

send the donations to neighboring hospitals
