Assemblyman David DiPietro (R,C-East Aurora) will sponsor a blood drive on Friday, April 12, from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the Perry Fire Department’s Recreation Hall in Lake Street Park.

“The American Red Cross is one of the country’s best non-profit organizations, and I am proud to sponsor this event with them,” DiPietro said. “The blood we collect will be used to save the lives of individuals across the region. As a community, we always band together in order to help those in need, and I know that this event will be no exception. If you already donate blood, thank you! If you never have, I ask you to please consider donating.”
