Please Schedule Your Next Life-Giving Donation NOW!

Mayor John V. Kelly, III and the Nutley Department of Public Affairs and Health are pleased to partner with Vitalant Blood Services of New Jersey to conduct their annual Community Summer Mobile Blood Drive. 

The drive will be held at the Nutley Public Affairs Building - 149 Chestnut Street from 3:00pm – 7:00pm.  Although walk-ins are accepted, APPOINTMENTS ARE SUGGESTED and will be taken before walk ins. All safety precautions will be put in place to ensure the health and well-being of all donors and technicians.  Please do not donate if you are sick. As always, donors must be between the ages of 16 and 76, weigh over 110lbs and be in general good health.

If you would like to schedule an appointment, please visit donors.vitalant.org.

New Jersey on a whole is experiencing critically low donation numbers; ranking lowest in the entire country in donations.  There is an urgent need for Type O Negative, O Positive & B Negative Blood Types, but all types are welcome and needed!
