The Community Blood Bank partnered with 94.7 BOB FM today for a special event aimed at raising awareness and encouraging blood donations.

The all-day “Bob-a-thon for Blood” featured a live broadcast, raffle giveaways, and incentives for donors.

Organizers say the event comes at a crucial time, as local hospitals continue to face blood shortages during the busy summer months.
