In an effort to bolster community health and assist local hospitals, League City officials have announced a community blood drive set for Tuesday, August 13. As per the city's announcement, the drive highlights the critical importance of blood donations, which can save up to three lives per donation. 

The blood drive offers more than just a chance to help others; each donor walks away with tangible tokens of appreciation. In recognition of their life-saving gift, donors will receive a backpack and a voucher for a pint of Blue Bell Ice Cream. The statement obtained by League City's official website notes that by donating blood, one makes a direct contribution to saving lives.

The need for blood is a constant in medical facilities, responsible for aiding in surgeries, transfusions for accident victims, and supporting those with chronic illnesses. This event is part of a broader, ongoing effort to maintain a steady supply for the unpredictable demands of healthcare. Residents interested in participating in the event are encouraged to mark their calendars and contribute to this vital cause. Details on the specific location and time can be found via the aforementioned League City notice.
