There’s a blood drive in Elliot Lake today, but it’s a bit different from past drives. Lately, Canadian Blood Services has been asking organizations and people to adopt a blood clinic in an effort to encourage more donors. Riding MPP Mike Mantha has done just that with today’s drive. Mantha has adopted his first ever clinic and the goal is to reach 77 units of blood. The drive is at ELSS from 4:00pm to 8:00pm. Mantha will be there, giving blood and talking to residents.
