After achieving the most blood donations and winning the Canadian Blood Services (CBS) Hospital Challenge for two years in a row, London Health Sciences Centre (LHSC) is back again this year with staff and community members who are eager to roll up their sleeves and support patients who rely on life-saving blood transfusions.
This year, the 17th annual CBS Hospital Challenge runs from August 1 until October 31.
Our goal
This year our goal is to donate 150 units of blood to support all kinds of patients who rely on LHSC. (and keep the first-place trophy in London for a third year!)
We need your help to reach our goal and continue making a life-saving difference.
