ARLINGTON HEIGHTS — To help build up the state’s blood supply amid the busy summer season, State Senator Mark Walker is hosting a blood drive on July 11 with State Representative Nicolle Grasse and Cook County Commissioner Maggie Trevor.
“Blood donations are vital for accident victims, cancer patients, individuals undergoing surgeries and many others,” said Walker (D-Arlington Heights). “Blood supplies can dwindle as our calendars fill up during the summer months.
