Miami-Dade County to Host Community Blood Drive Next Week

Miami-Dade County residents will have an opportunity to contribute to a vital cause next week as the county hosts a community blood drive. The event is scheduled for Tuesday, April 15, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM at the South Dade Government Center, located at 10710 SW 211th Street, Cutler Bay, a thriving suburban community in southern Miami-Dade.

Organized in partnership with OneBlood, the drive aims to bolster local blood supplies, which are crucial for emergencies, surgeries, and ongoing patient care across Miami-Dade hospitals serving diverse neighborhoods from Little Havana to Homestead. Donors can expect a streamlined process, with medical professionals on site to ensure a safe and efficient experience. All eligible donors are encouraged to participate.

Appointments are recommended to minimize wait times, though walk-ins will be accommodated as capacity allows. For more information or to schedule an appointment, residents can visit the OneBlood website or call their donor services line.
