Save-A-Life Mitzvah: Join A Plasma Doantion Group

Calling all who tested for antibodies at the Mayo Clinic with an index level of 2.0 and above and all who tested at Mount Sinai with a titer level of 320 and above!

Join this week’s 56 donors from Crown Heights and be part of the Save-a-Life Mitzvah.

What you can expect: Bethlehem is 1:45 from Crown Heights (90 miles). There’s a check-in, paperwork and prescreening process. That takes about 20-30 minutes. The actual donation time can vary from 40-60 minutes. Give yourselves a couple of minutes after that to get your bearings and grab a snack before you head home.

They are accepting two people every 15 minutes from 8:00am to 12:45pm.
