Leann Delong, Community Blood Center Donor Recruiter Representative, says the number of people showing up to donate has gone down.

"Donations have been down over the holidays as they always are. We are in need of O negative and B negative blood. We are under a day's supply. So, if you could come out and donate, we would greatly appreciate it," she said.
