Nassau Community College Partners with the New York Blood Center for
Its Spring 2026 Blood Drives: January 29 and March 26
January 6, 2026, Garden City, NY – Nassau Community College is proud to partner with the New York Blood Center for its annual Spring Blood Drives. The drives will take place on Thursday, January 29 and Thursday, March 26, from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm in the Multipurpose Room of the College Center Building (CCB) (last appointment at 4:45 pm). The College invites members of the community to join our efforts and become donors.
Nassau Community College is continuing its joint efforts with the New Blood Center to supply a substantial percentage of the blood needs of our community. Our January drive begins the new year in the appropriate spirit of giving. This is a critical time of year, when blood supplies are traditionally low, but the need for blood and blood products is high. The drive also is a step in NCC's efforts to encourage all able individuals to participate in this vital activity.
Make an appointment to give blood during the January drive at NCC January 2026 Blood Drive. The process takes only about an hour and light refreshments will be served to participants. Blood donors must be at least 17 years old, weigh 110 pounds or more and be in good health. Donors should come with some personal identification. We also ask that donors eat before donating.
