KBC Bloodmobile coming to Corbin Friday

When Corbin donors help shore up the low blood supply for Kentucky Blood Center (KBC) this week, KBC will return the favor with a chance to win a free SUV during a national vehicle inventory shortage.

At the halfway point of KBC’s “Summer Getaway Giveaway,” KBC is offering donors, who are ages 18 and older, an opportunity to win a 2022 Toyota RAV4 with its annual summer vehicle giveaway. Registered donors will be entered for the grand prize with each donation at any KBC mobile drive or donor center between now and Sept. 10.

KBC will hold a blood drive in Corbin on Friday, July 8, from 2 – 4 p.m. The KBC Bloodmobile will be at Corbin City Hall, which is located at 805 South Main Street.

All donors will be entered to win a $100 Walmart gift card.

Donors who donate in July and August will also receive a “Giving is Good” T-shirt.

Blood donors must be at least 17 years old (16 with parental consent), weigh at least 110 pounds, be in general good health, show a photo identification and meet additional requirements. Sixteen-year-old donors must have a signed parental permission slip, which can be found at kybloodcenter.org.

Appointments are preferred and walk-ins are welcome.
