One Blood is hosting the Pulse Remembrance Blood Drive at locations throughout Central Florida, including Apopka, on various dates in June to honor the nightclub shooting survivors, victims, and families.

The Apopka One Blood donor center will conduct the drive on the following dates and times: Friday, June 7, 9 a.m.-5 p.m.; Sunday, June 9, 9 a.m.-3 p.m.; Monday, June 10, 9 a.m.-5 p.m.; Tuesday, June 11, 11 a.m.-5 p.m.; and Thursday, June 13, 11 a.m.-7 p.m. The center’s address is 131 North Park Ave., Apopka.

“The need for a ready blood supply was never so apparent as it was on June 12, 2016, when the Pulse night club tragedy unfolded in Orlando,” a One Blood press release states. “Many of the victims rushed to the hospital that fateful night required immediate lifesaving blood transfusions.”

All donors at the drive events will receive a special Pulse remembrance T-shirt.

Generally healthy people age 16 or older who weigh at least 110 pounds can donate blood. Photo ID is required.
