21 January, 2022

Next Friday, January 28, the MEDIC mobile bus will be at KPD headquarters for a replacement blood drive for our friend Noah Sileno.  

At six years old, Noah is fighting his second battle with cancer after courageously beating it for the first time in 2018. As part of his extensive treatments, Noah receives routine blood transfusions. Blood that is donated during next Friday’s replacement drive goes towards credits for Noah’s future blood transfusions.  

The replacement blood drive will run from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on January 28. The MEDIC mobile bus will be located in the front parking lot of KPD headquarters at 800 Howard Baker Jr. Avenue. Prior to the day of the event, appointments to donate can be made online here. 

Walk-ins on the day of the event are welcome, but preference is given to those with appointments.  

If you choose to donate on behalf of Noah, please let the MEDIC staff know that your donation is going towards Noah.  

If you can, please consider donating to help our friend Noah as he continues his battle with cancer.
