2nd Annual
Commissioner Carlos Leon Blood Drive
Partnering with District Attorney Jaime Esparza
‘Out for Blood for Our Community’
County Commissioner Carlos Leon will hold his 2nd Annual Blood Drive on Thursday, August 25, 2016 at the El Paso County Courthouse located at 500 East San Antonio from 9:00am to 4:00pm and will continue at Fox Toyota of El Paso from 2:00pm to 7:00pm.
The Blood Drive will benefit United Blood Services, which supplies area hospitals with the lifesaving blood our community depends on. On August 26, 2009, Commissioner Leon depended on volunteer blood donors following a serious motorcycle accident in Mesilla, New Mexico, which nearly ended his life. After receiving several blood transfusions and underwent multiple surgeries, Commissioner Leon made a significant recovery, and today wants to give back to the community and help ensure there is blood available for those who need it.
