Blood must, therefore, be collected from humans. Quebec hospitals depend on the generosity of donors for their blood supply. These donors are individuals who are concerned about sharing the great wealth that circulates in their veins. Several thousand patients, both children and adults, would not recover their health without blood donations. In fact, only 3% of the population of Quebecers who are eligible to donate blood actually give this gift of life, on Wednesday, May 11th, 2016, will you be one of them? 22 CASGRAIN SPORTS CENTRE John Abbott College Memberships for residents Information: 514-457-6610, ext. 5325 Website: www.johnabbott.qc.ca In order to obtain your annual membership at a reduced rate, you must present a proof of residence at the Casgrain Sport Centre reception desk.
