The blood drive will be held in the Real Life Church parking lot, 23841 Newhall Ranch Road, Valencia, CA 91355 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Those that donate blood on this day will be entered to win a $100 Amazon gift card as well as a KitchenAid.

In addition to the blood drive, there will be well-known Santa Clarita food trucks, vendor tables with local businesses and much more.

For questions involving the blood drive contact Synthia Rocha, Account Manager, at srocha@hcbb.com or (661) 331-1313.
