In honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Vitalant is partnering with News Channel 3-11-12 to host Day of Service Blood Drives in San Luis Obispo, Santa Maria, and Santa Barbara. Dr. King's commitment to social justice, equality, and service is why we continue to recognize his humanitarian impact on this day.

I believe the idea that my blood could help save a life is so amazing. Even though I am not a trained medical professional, I can still make a positive impact on others.
