Thank you to all those who attended the Mobile Blood Drive yesterday! We were able to collect 19 units for the Blood Bank of Delmarva!! 
Below are some words from the Mayor, 2nd District Councilwoman & 6th District Councilman:
- “Providing community services to our residents is a priority of our administration. We are excited to partner with the Blood Bank to offer this service to our residents and look forward to this becoming an annual event.” Mayor Joann Personti stated.
- “I want to extend my sincere thanks to everyone who participated in yesterday’s blood drive. It may seem like a small act, but for those who rely on donated blood, it makes a life-changing difference. I also appreciate the Town of Elsmere for partnering with the Blood Bank of Delmarva to bring this event to our community. Special thanks to Nicole Long for coordinating the drive and helping make it such a success. Way to go, Elsmere!” 2nd District Councilwoman Jensen stated.
- “I want to take a moment to sincerely thank each of you for coming out. Your willingness to donate blood is more than just an act of kindness—it’s an act of lifesaving generosity. Every donation has the power to help patients in emergencies, support those undergoing medical treatments, and give hope to families during some of their most difficult moments. I’d also like to extend my gratitude to the Blood Bank of Delmarva for their dedication and coordination, to our Mayor and Town Manager for their continued support of community health initiatives, and to Nicole Long for her leadership and commitment in making today possible. Thank you all again for your compassion, your time, and your generosity. Together, we are helping save lives.” 6th District Councilman Ellison stated.
