KRRO Radio, Dakota News Now, Scheels, HuHot, and Community Blood Bank will host a spring blood drive on Friday, May 28 from 9:00 am to 5:00 p.m. at Scheels (41st St. & Western Ave.). All blood types are encouraged to donate blood throughout the day to improve a significate deficiency in the local blood supply as we move into the Memorial Day weekend.
According to the American Association of Blood Banks (AABB), “As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, the blood community applauds those individuals who have selflessly responded to the call for blood donations during this time. Blood Centers nationwide have seen significate declines in blood collections in recent weeks, with some reporting their lowest turnout in more than one year. These trends are concerning, as both patients and blood centers depend on the altruism of donors to ensure that blood is available for life-saving treatments.”

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO.com) Thursday, Avera broke ground on Kirby Place at the Walsh Family Village in Sioux Falls.
Thanks to more than 400 donors to the Home for Hope Campaign, the Avera Foundation raised over $3.3 million to expand and renovate patient and family lodging adjacent to the Avera McKennan Hospital & University Health Center campus.
Kirby Place will include 14 new guest rooms, more than doubling the current lodging. In addition to adding 6,500 square feet of space, this project will connect two of the three existing buildings at Walsh Family Village. When completed, there will be two facilities: Kirby Place and Ronald McDonald House Charities.
