Madison Blood Drive – Join Team Will ❀️

Madison families are invited to support the Team Will Blood Drive on Saturday, May 2 from 9:00 AM–2:00 PM in the Madison Elementary gym. This event is especially meaningful as we celebrate Will, who rang the bell a few weeks ago and is now cancer free β€” an incredible milestone for him and his family.


Blood donations play a critical role in helping patients like Will, and just one donation can save up to three lives. Appointments are encouraged, but walk-ins are welcome.


Let’s come together as a community to support this important cause and make a difference!
